First day of the holidays....

Comment Published at 22:0622:0630 comments30 comments38 Visits38 VisitsReport

lets hope i survive....lol......so far so good though.  We don't have too much planned for these holidays just usual parks, play dates and pictures!

Finally got some paper work i was wanting on Friday, just at the last minute, as school was breaking up i had to race up there with some papers for the teacher.  My eldest is having some problems with concentration and focusing in class, and to cut a long story short i have decided to have him assessed through a Qld health unit. 

It's all rather slow though, with the questionnaires taking more than a week to arrive and then they want them back with in a fortnight...that's great but school holidays go for two weeks so that is why i was racing up to the school on last day of term!  Anyway the teacher and deputy principal filled them out while i waited, even though it was rushed, it is all good.

Today we hung around at an inner city park which is near the water, great park and the kids had loads of fun, right now i'm trying to psych myself up to go to the supermarket with this lot!

Our weekend was rather quiet, we just ate way to much take out asian food and had a brekkie on Sunday morning to.   Bit naughty.

Well, better go and get up to the shops before i run out of 'essentials'!!....

I like your relaxed approach,that's great for kiddies to unwind from school and all the routines!  Sounds like you are having fun!

Hi Kerri, How you going?

I don't get a sleep in anyway because they still wake up at the same time.  Still it's nice not to have routine of lunches and being on time!

Re: First day of the holidays....

Homeschoolers get together all the time with other homeschoolers! Then there might be sports or other social times as well. We have the flexability to go to friends places whenever we want! I think there's more socialising than before we homeschooled.

Re: First day of the holidays....

Home school really isn't that hard. Once its all organised, Sami just goes ahead and does it. I keep Keiraleah busy doing her numbers and alphabet. Today we are doing shapes. We 're also doing "up" and "down" using the babies arms LOL.

Re: First day of the holidays....

Ah, well there is no way that Zane would just do the work without constant supervision......it probably would work for some people and not for others.  Do you give them 'holidays' like when scholl holidays are on or do you do something everyday with them?

Re: First day of the holidays....

Sami is 11, so that makes it a bit easier. We do stuff together as well depending on the subject. Science can be fun when we do the hands on things like making a volcano!

Holidays can be whenever we want but generally we go along with the school ones.
