Okay first of all DS#2 comes in and is bursting with pride as at 10 he has finally been elected to the school council. :D

He is so chuffed, well done Braddy xx

Then DS#1 turns up, sulky teenager that he is in yr 9, to announce he is being progressed and will be starting his GCSE in English next week (a whole year early) and he is thrilled to bits. Romeo and Juliet is his first piece of coursework. He may get the opportunity to fast track a couple of other subjects but that has to be discussed. This has reinvigorated his enthusiasm for school and he can't wait to get stuck in. Well done Zakk, my moshing grubby emo kid ;) xx :thumbsup:

Ooh!

I loved Romeo and Juliet at school, we did it for 5 years running :D

oh thats fab! well done to them both! and well done to the school, sounds like a fab way of getting kids enthusiastic!

Well done boys :clap::clap:

School council at 10 and accelerated lessons, sounds like you have a forward thinking school, hope it works out for them both.

Well done boys and well done you:thumbsup: Hope they carry on to great things.

Awww that's great Fox, my little girl who's 6 has been voted school councillor for the 2nd year running :D
She's well chuffed bless her.

Congrats to your lads! :thumbsup:

A 10 year old and now a 6 year old, what do they actually do, sorry I am an old fogey, no kids council when I was at school.

Oh, wonderful news. You must be thrilled for them both. Well done lads. :)
