Parent Teacher/ Ukulele Lessons

We went to Parent Teacher last night.  Was a bit of a flap, got home, power ate dinner and then dropped the kids around at Peter and Mary's, shot back to school to talk to Ms Williams.  She said that Beth is doing great, really well with her reading.  She's going to test her today for Level 12, which is what they need to be achieving by the end of the year.  She's doing fine with her maths too, but she said we should focus more on that with her because that's the thing she's not as good at and she tends to always want to do the things she knows she can do (reading) instead of maths.  But overall she's doing really well, has lots of friends and seems to be settling in nicely.  Certainly Ms Williams didn't mention anything that we need to be worried about which is good.

This morning it was Beth's first Ukulele lesson!  I got her up earlier than normal, 6:30am this time, to get ready to be at school by 8.  We all got ready and then I walked up with her on my bike, her on her scooter and we just made it in time.  Dropped her into the hall with ~25+ other kids, how Ms Williams can teach 25 5yo's how to play the Ukulele I'll never know, patience of a saint and then some.
