Pround Mum Overflow!!

A few months ago Alyssa come home with a newsletter asking kids to participate in Australasian Competitions through the school. She wanted to do 3 or 4 different exams but I limited her to only one exam this year, (with the thought of more next year). She entered the Science exam for year 4 students. She sat the exam and showed us the paper which I thought some of the questions were "quite" hard for this age group.
Well LOW and BEHOLD on Friday she had assembly at school and they were giving out the results for this exam and Alyssa got marks in the top 2% of New Zealand and top 9% of New Zealand and Australia year 4 students!!! I am so proud of her, she did so well.




Here is proud Alyssa with her Certificate of Distinction for the Science Exam.


A close up of the certificate. So next year she can do any exam she wants, this mum is very very proud of her hard work!



And here is Nara and Lachlan's moment of FAME! They were in the local free newspaper for starting school. This is up to you if you want them to be in the paper, but it was a nice wee memento to have of this occasion! Miss K (their Teacher) took the photo and sent it in for me.




A close up of their picture.
So all in all a lovely week for me, with lots of proud mommy moments with all the news and new things like learning to read and write, and doing homework.
Its moments like these that make me feel so blessed to be their mum! Luv you guys XXX
