Oh I wish I could go back in time because I know exactly the year/teacher she should have skipped!! smile

In terms of being a monitor/house leader/crossing guard, I think you're right polarbear that the kids are just excited about getting their chance. Perhaps I feel like it's the school that will make it seem like DD's not ready for those responsibilities yet because she hasn't had an extra year building up to it smirk

Thanks so much for your comments everyone, I need a bit of a boost to be brave enough to draft a request to the school today!
