Beautiful family. Sweet kids. If kids feel overwhelmed learning Zulu or homework just reach out. I will be happy to assist Free of charge. I teach and Head of the isiZulu department in one of the top private schools in a country in Sandton. It takes a village to raise a child

Waltons, PNA and the rest of stationary shops even some schools once the list for stationary is sent. You send your stationary list to the store pay and they prepare it for you, it's your choice if you want it delivered home or you can collect it, then are also those who offer service to cover or mark the books..

I used to use Waltons in Faerie Glen PTA, they did everything and I would just collect. Then my son moved to another school where Waltons had list packages prepared for that particular school, you could order from the school and Waltons would batch deliver to the school for all the children who ordered, super convenient.

😊chase sounds very excited for the new school. I hope and pray that they both enjoy the school. I went through the same experience 2 weeks ago my girls started new school and were both anxious especially for the second language isiZulu coz it’s a requirement here in SA and they’ve never done isiZulu before. Imagine starting new language in High school. I saw Chelsea was holding isiZulu study guide. All the best family❤. They will enjoy🙏

Another exciting video. When you said "This is already overwhelming & I haven't even started" I wanted to comment 'Ask the shop for assistance, cos we don't handle stationary lists' 😃but I realised that my comment will reach you too late. For lunch, you can pack anything the children likes really. I used to alternate sandwich fillings between Chicken & mayo, Chocolate spread, Cheese & Tomato with greens, Cheese spread , boiled egg & mayonnaise. Then I would throw in fish fingers or vienna sausage(cut in half), or cold meat on the side. Also switch between normal bread and hotdogs or hamburger rolls(bread) using same fillings. Then a small tub of yoghurt and a fruit or 2, a small pack of nuts or chips with juice (frozen or refrigerated overnight) should do the trick. Juice-wise,,,,,,A pack of 200 ml of 100% juices (Ceres, Liquifruit, Rhodes,Fruit tree or Krush brands are all okay) But even Oros ( which needs to be diluted with water) gets the job done just perfectly but they will need their own juice bottle for that.

Chelsea seems quite nervous about the prospects of starting a new school. At the beginning she was the the life of the videos at the ice rings and now appears to have gotten into a bit of a shell. She is going to be totally fine and she will make friends easily if she relaxes especially because she speaks English. I think its more difficult for kids if they dont speak English but even then they still make friends in SA schools. Good luck guys. Enjoy the new adventure. Both of you will be fine.

great job with the driving farther/further, proud of you! I love the backseat view, feels like I’m the car with y’all😊 (except for the lighting lol) thanks Chelci! yah I love that they do that, stationery shopping is a headache hah I’m thankful we just had to pay a flat fee and it came in a box all ready for her from the school shop :p and her school is more strict everything has to be school colours (& logo) from the school shop or it gets confiscated, according to the rules anyway, I see the odd other-coloured hair ties or whatever but yah I want those nuts 🤤 if they’re vegan of course, but they seem lekker (the word for delicious, good, cool, etc) I’m learning zulu on duolingo and it’s easy so far (: it’s easier than english just different word order what’s the earbuds for, computer class? and you should google school menus, or use the taptuck app for the school tuck shop, my older one is in grade r and prefers fruits and veggies and like vegan meats and stuff so it depends on what they like and what’s on sale and stuff hey

Just an update I have been waiting for. I kinda like Chase's tiptoe shoes. For Chelsea , the best brand for girls' school shoes is Buccanear. I know I am late to the suggest the brand but this brand is the best. It's strong, it holds polish and it lasts. I prefer colour pencils though because the oily ones can be messy 🙂.All the best to the kiddies as they go to school. They must brace themselves to be entering the world of multiple languages. Our school are so diverse even people from other African countries with their languages .❤
