The one with the parents evenings.

This past week, the week before half term has been a busy one! It's been full of parents evening, rugby matches at school and meet the tutor appointments!

Firstly, I had an appointment with Ellie's teacher to hear about her progress and how she's doing at school! Now, it did take her sometime to settle into her new school but I am really pleased to say she has settled in really well now and is really knuckling down with her school work! Her hand writing has improved tremendously as has her reading. She's doing well in all subjects and we're currently working on her 4 and 5 times tables at home. She has some maths homework to do this half term, which will keep her busy.
I am so, so proud of how well she's doing at school, especially with her reading. She is really trying to do her best, bless her.

Next I saw Charlie's teacher. As most of my regular readers are aware, it's his final year at primary school (I know, I can't believe it either). So it's an important year for him, getting ready and prepared for high school. I wrote about how we went to look around the high school and how excited Charlie is about starting there next September!
His hand writing has also improved a lot and he is doing so well in all subjects and has come top of the class on a couple of occasions, mainly for maths. He can use number squares and really quite confident with school work! Which of course I am super proud about. He's really working hard and doing his absolute best. Charlie joined in with a Rugby tag thing at school, which he did really well with and got a certificate for, bless him. He can't wait to do it again and is hoping to join the rugby team soon.

One day after school, I met Harry's tutor! She seems really lovely and had lots of good things to say about Harry. She asked if he's enjoying school, which he is of course. She asked how he's settling in and if he had any questions. He didn't. I chat with her about how Harry is settling in and she told me he's made lots of friends and is polite and helpful (If only he was like that at home, haha). He was really proud to show me around the library, where we met his tutor. And I met a couple of his friends that he's made since he started high school. I am also really proud of him. He doesn't like change but he has adapted so, so well. I can't wait for his parents evening, which I believe is next month.

Harry has also been picked for the rugby team. Which, honestly, I was quite surprised about because he has never really shown much interest in rugby before. Football, yes. Rugby no. I was a little apprehensive and wondered if it would be something he would stick at. He had his first practice match this past week and he played really well. He seemed to really enjoy it and already has another match set up for next month! Harry is super excited about it.I was really proud standing on the side line, supporting Harry and his team in rugby. I can honestly say, I think rugby is something Harry will stick at. I love that he's so sporty. All three of my children are quite sporty and outdoorsy, I am so proud of them all ♥
