Today was the annual Year 6 Leaving Assembly at Mangere Bridge School, where all the Y6s have to say some words and prizes are given out.
Bad momma stayed at work, but had arranged for deputies to attend (Nana, G'ma, Grandad and DH) and my spies on the spot have just reported in.
Jess, along with her very bright friend Brittany, jointly won the Academic Award.
I'm stoked. Jess has worked very hard on bringing her maths up to standard, and had started beating Britney in some recent English tests. I'm so pleased her hard work has been rewarded this way.
She had also been nominated for the Citizenship Award - this one the kids decide who should be nominated (2 from each class = 6 nominees) and then it goes to a vote. They are encouraged to vote for the person who they feel is responsible, fair, helpful, basically a role model. She didn't get it, but that's ok - just to be nominated is pretty damn great in my opinion.
Way to go Jessica!

Kathryn ... even without a photo, I can tell you're wearing what my kids call the "proud mama" look. Many congratulations to Jess! Gosh, that feels great to watch our kids succeed.

Congratulations to Jessica. May she continue to do so well.
Hey that's fabulous! Congrats to Jessica... I guess she's getting a bottle of Silvo in her Christmas stocking ;-)
