Completed my last PTA event as Chair. Whoop whoop whoop! .
.
.
Have run Chewton Mendip Primary School PTA for just over 2 years. Lots of highs, lots of tears and lots of (hysterical) laughter. I have taken things personally when I shouldn’t have and made some excellent new friends. The whole experience has been rewarding and one which I am glad to have done. If anyone is thinking about getting involved with the school PTA my advice? do it - unequivocally without hesitation, do it. .
.
Now though it’s time for new challenges, to re-kindle my old friendships and make it up to my long-suffering husband. .
.
So. If anyone has any job opportunities please let me know! My professional background is marketing but I’m open to new challenges... .

So proud of my little cherubs today. Both T and J got awards at school. T received her Level 8 Rhythmic Gymnastic Award AND a Club DREAM award for consistently demonstrating the values of Team Bath Rhythmic Gymnastics Club: Determination, Respect, Enjoyment, Achievement and Motivation. .

T started Rhythmic Gymnastics in September to try and improve her flexibility for ballet. She has loved every session so thank you to Sarah Dennis at Team Bath RG who has been brilliant in encouraging and supporting her in learning new skills and techniques. We have just come back from the Christmas Display which was excellent. Well done everyone! .

T has been struggling a bit at school with friends recently, so to ease those tricky lunchtimes, her teacher has allowed her to set up and run an art club for the KS1 kids. She persuaded 2 other girls to run it with her and I go along just to supervise. I have been pleasantly impressed with my 10 year old and the way she supports and encourages the younger children. This week they were decorating felt shapes to hang on the Christmas Tree. 🎄

The rain held off just long enough for all the mini Santas, including J, to participate in the 1k Chew Valley Santa Scramble this morning. J loved it (and T loved the hot chocolate almost as much!) and is very proud of his medal and his 2nd place!

December has arrived which means T is drooling (metaphorically) over the Snowy Road we made for our school Christmas Market! .

J’s latest artistic endeavours Dot Art (or should that be pointillism?). The Dotty Choccy Bar. It took him 2 weeks of 15 minute slots at a time during school to complete this so he is very proud of the finished image. Apparently he’s now working a Dotty Hotty Choccy. .

It looks gorgeous! I’m in Switzerland too now, but today is a rainy day.

It was even more gorgeous a couple of days earlier when there was more blossom on the trees. Raining? Not here in Zug (yet). Have a great day though!
