At the end of term the kids get to do something on the last day of school. This year it was crazy hair day... The girls loved it!
In addition, since it was also the end of the first semester (half way through the school year) we had an open day; where the parents could come into the classroom and observe. The girls were very excited to show me what they had been up too and the teachers also did Parent/ Teacher interviews which went well for both girls!

This year Thomas has started swimming lessons! He started at 2....got kicked out for crying and then started up again at 2 1/2. He has now been in lessons for 6 months and while we originally thought he was a prodigy...because he was paddling around at 18 months without assistance, we have now learned that his audacity is completely dependent on his mum! The term before we had to leave the lesson early because he saw kids jumping off the diving board which gave him quite a fright! This term (terms are 10 weeks) I was surprised to see him not only swim to the deep end where the diving board is, but after getting thrown off the diving board about 6 times he actually jumped himself the last time!....which I didn't get on film. Here is some footage and pictures--enjoy!
