Once again, LR’s and RJ’s school put on its huge biennial musical performance. All the kids at the school have a part, with each grade getting its own big musical piece to perform. This year’s performance was Jack and the Beat-stalk, another original written by the school principal, filled with only-slightly-mangled songs by the Beatles.
LR and the Go-Go Girls strut their stuff across the stage.
June flew past in a hurry. The kids put together an impromptu magic show one morning, and LR played piano for a huge crowd. RJ flew and continued to be full of surprises. We spent an evening outside taking German lessons in the dark, and the kids channelled their inner zombies while discovering where all their good ideas come from.
RJ took flying lessons at one of his friend's birthday parties. That trampoline practice came in handy!

LR: Now this trick you’re going to love…
(swings around the bar)
You’ve never seen it before…
(swoops her way to the top)
And I know you haven’t seen it before…
(gracefully spins around the bar)
Because I havent made it up yet.
(swings from one bar to the next)
Its called the… Rather Interesting Roll.
At the end of the year, the kids have a seemingly endless run of concerts and exhibitions. RJ has been working on his song for a while and finally had his big concert. He did a fantastic job and got a massive round of applause.
RJ takes a bow.

LR’s school put on its huge biennial musical performance. All the kids at the school have a part, with each grade getting its own big musical piece to perform. The plays are written by the school principal and are an enless run of weak jokes and bad puns — fantastic stuff! LR’s scene revolved around King Halfur and the Knights of the Times Tables.

LR had her first piano recital on the weekend. She was incredibly nervous and needed a little extra time to get up there, but after a few other kids had their turn, she was up and did a great job.
