..yeah, I used to do that as well because it's the most awful feeling for them as well, when they forget someone and the school was always reluctant to give you a class name list, so they had to remember everyone in their class...that was when they were very young/primary school age...

Yeah, same here, my daughter started secondary this year so I assume she won't want to give out cards to the whole class anymore
