Parent’s Evening

Today was the day that most children, with the exception of Emilie, dread – Parent’s Evening.

Mummy collected us from school, which was a nice treat, and then we went to look at Emilie’s work before we saw Emilie’s teacher – Mrs Hawkins.
Mummy looked through lots of Emilie’s work and she was very impressed, it would appear that Emilie likes writing and drawing lots and lots!

Mrs Hawkins came into the hall to collect Mummy and as we walked back through to Emilie’s classroom Mrs Hawkins said “Right then Emilie we better tell Mummy how naughty you are, I did tell you that I was going to tell her the truth so are you ready?” to which Emilie replied “Don’t be silly Mrs Hawkins I am not naughty I am always good!”

Mrs Hawkins then went on to say that Emilie was a pleasure to teach and she wished she had a class full of Emilie’s as if she did then her days would be great and she would have lots of fun. Emilie is doing really well and making very good progress she is a very keen member of the class and loves to learn. There wasn’t really much else for Mrs Hawkins to say apart from “Keep up the good work Emilie!”

So with one down and one to go we made our way across to juniors so that Mummy could see Dan’s teacher, Mr Gibbons. Unfortunately for Dan he had a tough act to follow but we are glad to say he measured up!

Mr Gibbons said that Dan is continuing to make good progress and no longer has tantrums in class when he doesn’t want to do something. Dan has been making excellent progress with his reading and with the punctuation in his writing which he needs to keep up with. He needs to spend some time working on his times tables, which obviously Mummy can do as she is an Accountant and likes numbers! Dan also needs to speed up when he is writing as although his punctuation and the use of language has improved he writes very very slowly and it is deemed a great acheivement if he manages to write 3 lines during a lesson.

Mummy was very pleased with both reports and as a treat she is taking us out for dinner tomorrow evening.
