Elliot’s report came home at the weekend and rather than just being a single sheet of paper as we have seen previously, it was in a little booklet of A4 paper with lots more written comments.

Elliot has managed to keep his head in the level 2 stage – exceeding expectations for all but mathematics and art where he is meeting expectations (level 3).  In fairness he has been challenged with the analytical english side of mathematics – something that we are well aware of and that we have been working on over the last couple of months now.  ICT remains his premier subject in both desire and delivery 🙂 No surprises there we guess…

Overall, we are really pleased for Elliot, he is clearly working hard and is maintaining his above average for his age group levels.

Well done Elliot – Year 3 next and it will all get that little bit harder 🙂

This afternoon was the juniors sports day and mummy went to watch Elly and his classmates clash it out 🙂

Elliot got a first, a second and two third place results 🙂

The first was in the bean bag race – one of daddy’s favourites so daddy is made up with Elly’s result 🙂

The sun shone all day long so the sun tans should have been well enforced 🙂

Mummy chose to not run in the mummy’s race today ….. 🙁

Monday June 26th, 10am – the Silcoates Sunny Hill Sports day.

Look, Plug showed up 🙂

The weather has been nothing short of glorious, the kids were all on fine form and the competition commenced right from the side lines as the parents built up the tension nicely 🙂

This year Olly fought to the end of each race rather than giving up “because he wasn’t going to win” 🙂 He did not win either of his races this year but the smile on his face said it all – he loved it 🙂

Even daddy got in on the action in the daddies race although surprisingly enough he didn;t win either.  Poor Olly was dumbfounded as to why daddy was running on the grass with the other daddies 🙂

Next year daddy, concentrate on the whistle and don’t hang around at the back chatting – it will not deliver a win 🙂

Will never tire of receiving stuff like this through the post 🙂
