The end of Year Four

24th July 2019 Over 40 and a Mum to OneFamily Life

I’ve really not had my eye on the ball in 2019, too much going on and at times it’s been a real struggle to keep everything on an even keel.  I seem to have blinked and all of a sudden we are at the end of Year Four! I’m typing this post and I’m really…Continue reading The end of Year Four

Transition Day as Year Five awaits

Transition Day as Year Five awaits

9th July 20199th July 2019 Over 40 and a Mum to OneFamily Life

In just under two and a half weeks the school year will be over and my son will have left Year Four behind him.  It hardly seems possible that he’ll be starting Upper Key Stage Two in September.  This morning he will have experienced Transition Day as Year Five awaits and probably for the first…Continue reading Transition Day as Year Five awaits

The reluctant reader journey continues

The reluctant reader journey continues

3rd April 20193rd April 2019 Over 40 and a Mum to OneFamily Life

From as far back as I can remember I’ve loved books.  Trips to Aldershot Library to pick up and exchange books was always a highlight of my week as a child.  I’m still a bookworm now and there’s a rather large pile of books to read by the side of my bed as a permanent…Continue reading The reluctant reader journey continues

When my son started in Nursery class aged 3 and half it was so hard to imagine the time that he’d be experiencing a school residential for the first time. Even thinking of him being in Key Stage Two seemed like a lifetime away. But before we knew it he was in Year Four and…Continue reading Experiencing a school residential for the first time

A roller coaster week of parenting

A roller coaster week of parenting

20th December 20186th January 2019 Over 40 and a Mum to OneFamily Life

Life is never dull with my now nine-year old son.  There are highs and lows, as I guess there are with all kids.  At this time of year he’s generally just shattered and over excited with his birthday and then the whole idea of Christmas.  It’s not always easy to keep up with his emotions…Continue reading A roller coaster week of parenting

An update on my reluctant reader

An update on my reluctant reader

28th November 20186th January 2019 Over 40 and a Mum to OneFamily Life

Whenever I look at the recommended reading list from school for a child in Year Four, if I’m honest, I just want to cry.  I feel defeated as a parent, and as a book lover.  I just haven’t been able to visualise my nearly nine-year old son ever getting to the point where he’ll be…Continue reading An update on my reluctant reader
