Don’t know about others passing, the teacher doesn’t give them their results out in front of each other, she came and told me seperately. She really doesn’t seem to be that bothered, and not that bothered about how others do. I think she really does just lovedoing the ballet and the exam was just one of those things that came along that you did. I suppose if there was alot of fuss by others in the class she might , but she never sees them really outside of class.

Re the baking Michelle, if it had been me overseeing it, it might well have been rather less edible, other than making suggestions about thinking about what ingredients we use and why normally I would ahve left her too it. Of course H less easy going about such things

At least she knows that she had a reason for it (the hurt foot taking away time in lessons) and you know and she knows that when she does pass it is a real one, not a soft “everyone passes” one. Glad she has taken it well; our place makes no fuss about it really and they just all move on. Hope it works out.

Good about the Brownies. Hope the ballet goes better next time – she can’t be the only one not passed?

Really glad the top of the head baking was edible. C puts all sorts in when she plays like that, contents of teabags, peelings – you certainly wouldn’t eat it.

SB fine with it, we had done a fair bit of pre exam work up to variability of results. i guess it ultimately will depend upon whether the ballet peer group will make an issue…
We have enjoyed HP on film – tho quite a number of differences, there is an overall appeal. the first 2 quite ‘light’ but the 3rd quite dark and older in outlook – a bit of a jump! but sb loved it, and bb pootled about

Animation sounds fab as does police dog (from very safe distance for me!). Commiserations for ballet result but gald SB is okay about it :).

Glad to hear she’s taken it well anyway.

How does Harry Potter go down on screen? We’re considering it now we’ve heard it.

Oh-poor SB! Hope she just gets on with her dancing and enjoys it, and has better results next time.
