Ufton Court

General 

Elliott was in good spirits today, though a little nervous about the trip when he first got up.

Activities

After breakfast and getting to school Elliott lost his nerves and was excited about going on the trip when he saw everyone in the hall waiting to go. He waved from the coach as it passed by and had a big smile on his face.

Chess

General 

Elliott was good today. He did talk about being nervous before Ufton Court trip a few times but he said he was nervous and excited at the same time and he was quite relaxed about the trip at bed time.

Activities

After breakfast he made some more Pokemon slides for his powerpoint presentation, drew the inside of the Tardis and played lots of Clarinet. He also watched an episode of Doctor Who and played some Pokemon Go. He had roast chicken, roast potatoes and broccoli for lunch with a mini dark Magnum for pudding.

After lunch we found an old chess set and he started playing chess as Thomas has been teaching him. He played a couple of games against Andrea and me and then it was time to head back. After we got home we packed for Ufton Court together and then he played more chess against himself. Then we had cheese rolls for tea and after tea he had his bath. When he was dry and in his pyjamas we played another game of chess (which we drew) and watche a Pokemon episode. Then he had his bed time squash, brushed his teeth and read more of his Beast Quest school book before it was time to go to sleep.

Joesph Lannoy

Elliott was really good today and the people we were with all commented on how well behaved but funny he was.

After breakfast and getting dressed we went to the skate park in Downton recreation ground and did some Pokemon Go hunting on our way and our way back (we also took part in a new raid together and won). He also played the Clarinet and practiced some of his exercises as well as developing a way to play "I am the Doctor" as well. He also made more slides for his Pokemon powerpoint presentation. Then he had ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch.

After lunch we went to Christchurch to visit Graham, Anthea and Joesph Lannoy who are over visitng from Hong Kong. There were vaious other people there with various other children and, even though they were all younger, Elliott played with them and got on really well with them. We went to the local park and played some hockey and football as well as playing on the swings and play equipment as well. On our way home we had MacDonalds for tea and Elliott had a chicken mcnuggets happy meal. After we got home he played his Clarinet some more and then did some more Pokemon slides before having a quick bath. After his bath he had some bed time squash and then he brushed his teeth and read some more Beast Quest before going to sleep.

School report

General 

Elliott was really good after school today. It was also the day we got his school report and it was really good saying he's on track,  contributing, keen to learn, good fun and Miss Woods even mentioned enjoying chatting about Doctor Who with him. There are some ideas for where to improve but it sounds like he's had a really good year overall.

Activities

After school we drove straight to Downton and he made a PowerPoint slide show about Pokemon. He had chicken nuggets, chips and peas for tea before his bath. After his bath he brushed his teeth and read some more of his Beastquest school book before bed time.

Then he had toast for tea and after we researched the digestive system for home learning. Then he brushed his teeth and read some of his Beastquest school book before bed time.
