Man of the match

General 

Elliott was really good all day today. However I don't know if you saw but in his book from school there is a request from Mrs Parfitt for us to have a quiet word with him and ask him to be less silly at school. I've done this and said that during class time it's not the time to be silly. I hope to catch up with her in the next week as well. She's also asked for a list of days of when Sarah picks him up and when Andy's Mum picks him up which I'll leave to you. I did notice she's referred to Andy's Mum as Granma in her note - I wonder if you could explain to her that in fact Andy's Mum is family but not his Granma as I would prefer Elliott not being confused about that kind of thing (though obviously understandable for Mrs Parfitt not to know the intricate details).

Activities

We went to football in the morning where Elliott did really well and in the game tackled hard and kept going despite taking some knocks. Because of this he got the man of the match award which he was over joyed by/ We had a chat about it being someone else's turn next week so hopefully he's prepared.    

After lunch we watched some Ben 10 and then went swimming in Carnival Pool to get ready for Tuesday. He was doing really well so hopefully the lessons will come at a good time as he seems to be enjoying swimming. After swimming we had a tea of chicken, mashed potato and broccoli and he eat really well and eat some broccoli which was brilliant. So after tea we did some more homework filling in fruit and vegetables from today, including broccoli. We also then did some reading and he did really well, his reading really seems to be improving.
