The thing about having Friday as your day off is that it's always when child related things take place, but I'm not complaining too much. Today was an opportunity to see both daughters shine.
Isabelle had the starring role in this mornings class production of "the Trouble with Mum" (The trouble is she's a witch). She was great - continuing the family tradition of drama most recently demonstrated by Iona's wonderful Pilate in JCSS.
But this wasn't the only event of the day. We also had to go to Cornerstone to see Iona in the Music Festival. We were very proud of Vocalis. There were only a handfull of them, but they held their own against the massed choirs of private schools (and one state school I think). It was like guerilla music. There were all these smart rows of blazer wearing disciplined school kids - and Vocalis in their purple shirts - clearly more of a little team... But they did extremely well. Technically I thought they were brilliant. They just couldn't produce the same volume as half a school... They didn't win, but no shame in it.
Well done the girls!
