So our PE teacher Mr Gilham is leaving (again), we don't know what will happen to after school sports clubs and more importantly, Sports Council.
Wednesday
We had Neds first parents evening today. The run up hadn't gone well, he had to book his own appointments with his teachers and had managed to lose his original form and his replacement copy......we were down to him writing down what he managed to remember and confidence was low. Imagine our surpise when he managed to get them all pretty much spot on, he even managed to get a few extra appointments that he hadn't even booked by sharking about. Even more impressive was his general demeanour around school, he seemed really comfortable and I was very impressed that he knew his way around such a big school so well. He got really good feedback from all his teachers too, the only critiscism being that his focus can wander........
We then had a quick dash to McDonalds for something to eat before going straight back to Park House for team Kennet. Still loving it in the competition group.
Thursday
Went down to play with Charlie after school, the oppurtunities for this are few and far between these days what with the sporting commitments and it getting dark so early. A shame then that I accidentally got a Nerf bullet in the eye. Then had a big old sulk because no one was quite apologetic enough for my liking and I came home early.
Friday
Dad cleared off out with the boys to see some 120 year old pop group and Ned had his first school disco at Park House leaving mum and I to have a nice girls night of snuggling, laughing and book reading. A lovely way to spend an evening now and again.
Saturday
I woke up feeling rather creative, so after a lot of drawing and cutting and sticking I finally came up with these rather splendid pom pom glasses:
You couldn't see much out if them but who cares when you look this cool?
Marlborough was calling, lunch out and an advent calendar to choose.
Lunch was brilliant, we had proper posh hot chocolates as well, in tall glasses.
Ned was on top form as well, he had all sorts of entertaining banter, the highlight being his version of Mr and Mrs played between Mum and Dad and me and him.
We then got on with the main task of the day, calendars. It's always a tough choice, such an important countdown to mark.
We were home in plenty of time to go roller skating for once, sadly it wasn't on this week so it was a night in front of the telly instead.
Sunday
Sportshall round two today, we were both feeling a bit under the weather. There was no way we could let our teams down at such short notice so we soldiered on. We did pretty well too, especially as i ended up doing 6 events, the runn bg ones were all pretty long races too.
Monday
We did a song from High school musical at dance club. Mum and Dad reckoned they could really tell the difference when i'm really into it and loving the music.
I got all excited to help Mum do some shredding with our new shredder after tea. Sadly the shredderr was total rubbish, it only works for two minutes before the motor cuts out for twenty minutes too cool down. We packed it up and are going to take it back....
