Mother of Arianna and Adrian, Afra Famili said her five-year-olds had never been more excited.

“Arianna is talking about school in her sleep, she’s really waiting on starting at school, they’re both very excited,” she said.

“They keep asking about putting their uniform on and I had to hide their uniforms to make sure it stays neat and ironed, they want to put it on and play in it.”
