  • i used to be a childcre teacher and remembered one mum in particular,just crying her eyes out, made me start, i rang her several times that time to ensure her son was fine and then bought her flowers to cheer her up at end of day, a heartbreaking time


  • I have yet to do school drop off for my kids but I remeber the utter embarassment my parents put me through as a kid. I promise not to do the same thing to my boys. Probably…haha


  • I have five kids to drop off to school!ok soo I’m a pro at it lol a time that stands out would be when l dropped off my kids at primary school and l got a parking ticket! l was talking to a mum of course and Didn’t pay attention that l overstayed the 5 minute parking bay limit!opps


  • I need another good book in this in my life like last week, if this isn’t relevant and up to with all the mums that have kids going upto or in school who love a bit of caffeine and gossip to get through this thing called life. and what better in a book then the freaking hilarious and honest kitty Flanagan, yes please I would love to dive into this book.


  • It would be the time I thought we had missed the bus so drove my youngest to school only to find there was no school that day. He had to come to work with me, until someone could come pick him up


  • There is nothing better than coming around the corner and seeing your “crew” at your designated meeting spot! Will cherish the mum friends I have made in the pickup queue!


  • Stuck in a traffic jam surrounding the full block to school and receiving a parking fine for getting stuck on the school crossing whilst in the traffic jam!


  • I’m a teacher at my kids school so I would always get baled up on my days off from parents in my class!


  • Everyday the is the best memory because I’m able to see my beautiful children off to school with their ‘too big bags’ and their gappy smiles.


  • Finding out we left the homework at home. Child melt down. Back home back to school still skimmed into work just after 8.30!


  • Worst – hearing a mum whisper, yep that’s the mum of that kid I was just telling you about 🙁
    I was devestated


  • Would have to be taking my daughter to school her First week, an some standing round and her coming over saying mum you can go now, 🙁 why must thry grow so quick.


  • Our little boys second day of kindy and he was still finding it hard when it come to leaving and a little girl from his class told him it’s ok took his hand and walked into school with him, it made me smile and grateful


  • My best memory is making friends with some of the ladies even though it’s been years we are still friends my worst memory is when my son said he is to old for me to walk him in anymore 🙁


  • All the other mums had phones that took photos so they were taking a photo of the class parent list and I had to use pen and paper to write them down. gave a few others a little giggle that I was so behind the times.


  • Worst Drop Off when my daughter decided to projectile vomit everywhere in front of everyone. I’ll never live it down.


  • Worst memory: Told my 4 year old’s former teacher, he was sad, he had no friends and nobody liked him. She shrugged her shoulders saying “it’s his behaviour”, before looking at him and saying “you can’t throw sand at kids and expect them to like you”. I cried for hours!


  • My kids smile worth more than anything when they dropping off to school.I hate winter coldnnes while stormy like rain on school drop off times.


  • My 2 boys recently went back to daycare/preschool after a few weeks off. The changes implemented due to Covid meant we can’t take kids in and get them settled and my youngest couldn’t take his beloved Blankie. It’s been tough for everyone and every morning there are tears


  • My mum worked so whenever she dropped me off was the best memories!
