Yesterday, Coby had his 1st taster session at his preschool, Bumblebees. He was very much looking forward to it (see pic below of him outside the entrance)! It was only for an hour from 10 am until 11 am but he seemed to enjoy it, though Kelly said he did seem quieter than usual and perhaps a tad apprehensive. Kelly stayed for the hour as well, as she had to fill in some forms and meet his key worker, and Coby occasionally came over to check if she was still there or not. The rest of the time, he was out playing in the garden with the other children.
He has another two more taster sessions to go, before he starts going every Wednesday morning from 9-12 until the Summer holidays. Then in September, he will have his full 15 hours per week funding. At the moment, we are just paying for him to go a morning a week so he gets used to it, the same as we did with Aaron. He officially starts on the 3rd May.
We can’t quite believe that he is starting already – the time has just flown by. ;-( The little chap is certainly growing up!
