My sons primary school run a lovely breakfast club every morning. It's run in the quiet space. A few children who need a more gentle start to the morning have been invited, they have breakfast, play games, chat and catch up on gossip - they just have a nice start to the day.
This morning as my son was walking into school I handed him his bag, he asked why it was so heavy. I could have lied but decided to tell the truth. His PE kit was in his bag! He was in school before he realised what I had said, he was not happy. I heard him shouting, then I peeped through the breakfast club window. I saw him throw his belongings into the cloakroom and then run shouting in the opposite direction. The TAs in the breakfast club were dealing with it so I left.
I left feeling guilty that he is so upset, that I didn't help. I left trusting that the staff at his school would deal with it in the calm and kind manner they usually treat him with.
