Whistling Woodwind

General 

Elliott was really good after school today but was a bit down heartened by the increase in discipline and I think missed some of the fun he felt was happening in lessons. We talked about how it was only temporary to get everyone re-focused but I think he'll need a bit of time to adjust.

Activities

After I picked Elliott up we went home and Elliott had Macaroni and Cheese for tea. Then we went to Emmbrook School where he had a face to face Clarinet lesson and face to face Whistling Woodwind, both of which went well. After we got home he played his keyboard before brushing his teeth and getting ready for bed. Before he went to sleep he read "Robin Hood: Hacking, Heists and Flaming Arrows" by Robert Muchamore.
