School days – Roald Dahl and homework
Well, that’s week 2 of this school year done and it’s whizzing by as usual. It always seems to be the worst week for tiredness as well, not helpful when it comes to doing reading after school. N went to…

Family life and doing the school run
Everyone agrees that dads have an important part to play in children’s lives. Of course, life doesn’t always happen like that and there may not be male role models in the family unit. My own dad died when I was…
School Days – the start of year 1
The new school year has started for most people, and N’s done his first week back going into Year 1. He had a really good reception year, the main achievement being that he enjoyed it. When asked N does say…
Hopes for the new school year

School days – school report week
We’re racing towards the end of the school year, and N’s going to have a shock over the summer when he doesn’t need to be in that school routine. Mind you, he’ll be in holiday club for much of it,…
The sportswear dilemma of National Sports Week
Until last week, I’d not felt too pressured by school non-uniform dates. World book day passed pretty easily (I had a plan for Horrid Henry, but N decided he didn’t want to dress up), non-uniform days have either been pj…
