Well if that piece you shared is anything to go by, she’ll go far. She’s certainly got some material after this experience.

We really haven’t come very far have we … 😢

Ah… that’s a bit better, but a response wouldn’t have gone amiss to allay concerns before the event.
PS : can’t believe she’s this age already - a mere babe when I first connected with you [over in the other place]. Wishing her all the best. Is she going to do English?

This is why I keep active on social media : despite the many downsides, it’s great to connect with people and, over the years get to know exactly what they’d love to be tagged into. Happy weekend both.

I occasionally had to cover Drama lessons (Middle School) and it always struck me how the set practical task evolved according to development of the child. Some were ‘acting’ - others were just immersed in extended role play - there was a marked difference between the two. Fascinating to watch.
