Aaron's Blog

Aaron recently received another Headteachers Certificate for all of the merit marks that he has been receiving. I think this must be his 3rd or 4th now, so he is doing really well! He has also reached 100 hours on the Children’s University scheme which is for doing things outside of school. He received a nice certificate and a little silver badge for this, which he was quite proud of! Well done Aaron, keep it up!

Aaron has now got his ‘Space’ badge at Cubs.  To get this, Aaron had to learn about the stars and space and also make a constellation using a torch, a cardboard tube and some thin paper.  He had to put holes in the paper to make the shape of a constellation, which he did, and it worked very well. He was quite pleased with his new badge so Kelly just has to sew it on to his Cubs jumper now!

Parents evening went very well for Aaron this year. Mr Harden, his teacher, said that Aaron was doing well and he was especially pleased that he did something wrong but went to ask him and then tried again and got it correct. So, well done Aaron! His reading is good and he is doing his spellings well and usually gets them all correct every week. Maths and English are also OK but he could do with trying even harder to get even better.

Last week, Aaron went on a 1 night Camp and Cook trip with his class at School. He had to take a bag with his clothes and sleeping stuff in to school and they got a bus from school to the place near Dartmouth. They were to sleep in a wooden hut for the night and he was in with a few of his other friends. One of his friends tried to sneak some chocolate in for a midnight treat for them all, but was caught by a teacher! ha

Year 4 Camp and Cookha The teacher didn’t take it all though, so they still had a little bit of chocolate! During the night, Aaron was, apparently, snoring very loudly which kept his friends awake and they were able to lift his arm up to look at the time on his watch without him noticing! That is typical Aaron! Any

way, he had a great time and enjoyed the activities that included den building, cooking pizza and bread over a fire and other general outdoors stuff like he does for Cubs. He was absolutely shattered and filthy when he got back though and had to go straight into the shower to clean off! 

Cubs

Yesterday evening was Aaron’s first proper Cubs session. He looked very smart in his new cubs uniform and proper walking shoes, and said he had a good time, although they didn’t do too much during the 1st session, which was probably good as most of the children were tired from the first day of school!
