STARTING SCHOOL!

The awesome foursome have got their shiny new backpacks and lunchboxes and are ready to learn

When Natalie and Kahn from Bunbury, WA, first heard they were expecting quadruplets, their emotions moved between terror and delight. “For two years we couldn’t fall pregnant,” Kahn recalls with a laugh. “Then we were a basketball team!”

Fast-forward nearly five years, and the quads – Maddison, Marley, Frankee and Maioha (pronounced My-oh-ha) – are preparing to start school.

“Maddy and Maioha are the most excited,” says mum, Nat, 35. “I just hope they all shine individually, despite being known as ‘the quads’.”

SUPER EXCITED

The four-year-olds will attend the same school as their big sister Kiana, six, and thanks to a special request from mum, are in the same classroom. “I didn’t want to split them up this first year,” admits Natalie.

The non-identical siblings tried on their uniforms for the first time when Woman’s Day visited. We’d like to report that it was all smooth sailing, but it wasn’t! Were they excited? Were there rumblings of discontent as they fought for their own individual look? Yes.”
