Unfortunately I had to miss his end of season presentation because it clashed with E's 5th birthday party, but the Mister took him along to collect his team trophy. He wore his prized Bath rugby shirt, and proudly picked up his award before leaving early to attend his sister's party. I'm disappointed that I didn't get to see him collect his trophy, but so proud of the effort he puts in, how hard he always tries, and his commitment to playing.
Along with his achievement in the swimming gala, he has shown what a great little sportsman he is and I'm looking forward to seeing where next season takes him, and last week he brought home a glowing school report saying how delightful, thoughtful and considerate he is as well as having a great sense of humour. He is growing up to be a wonderful young man - I honestly could just burst with pride. He is a star.
E was a part of her very first class assembly last month. She and her class showed us their daily routine at school, as well as singing a song with actions. E gets a little emotional and anxious during this sort of thing, and I was so proud of her for being brave and doing her part during the assembly - she showed us what they do in PE as well as a picture she had painted - and even doing all the actions to the song and singing along. At the end as I was getting ready to leave she had a few tears (as you can probably tell from the photo!), but she took a deep breath and went back off to her classroom. The whole class did a beautiful job and it was a really lovely assembly.
She's doing so well at school, aside from her initial anxiety first thing she has settled in and made lots of friends, as well as excellent progress - she's now been moved up to level 15 in reading. I'm looking forward to these last few weeks of her first year at school, including her first school sports day next month! Her very first school report was brilliant and she is trying so hard, gaining lots of confidence and making great strides in her learning. It is bittersweet to see my youngest growing up, but I love being there to watch and enjoy every minute of it, and realise that I am so lucky to be able to do so.

Wow what fantastic children you have! Well done on the trophy, sounds like he is excelling in sports. E is doing fantastic at school by the sounds of it, well done to her for going up in reading. I'm sure her first report will be fantastic x #LoudnProud
ReplyDeleteThank you Sharon, they're doing so beautifully! Xx
DeleteWhat superstar children you have! Well done to them both, level 15 on reading! That's wonderful, seriously. I read with Harry's class each week and most of them are on level 5.
ReplyDeleteThank you! She absolutely loves reading, her big sister was the same & she's still a bookworm now so hopefully she will keep her love of reading for life!
DeleteWell done to them both! They are both doing so well :) Isn't it nice to have a few months off rugby? We don't actually go back until the start of September. No rugby trophies for my boys this year, but my younger son picked up coach's player of the season at football :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! It is, though football hasn't finished yet so Sundays aren't quite free just yet but at least we get a lie in! Well done to your young one!
DeleteI know how proud you are of all your children, to read individual posts like this are lovely. I've followed the posts on fb and IG with a smile.
ReplyDeleteYou should also be so proud of yourself, you brought these children up to be the amazing creatures they are xx
Thank you so much Jo xx
DeleteFantastic for both of them. It's great to see our kids finding things they love and excel in. You have every right to be a proud mum!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
