My 7 year old has been asked every year to attend the G&T club after school, they asked him in year 1 but he was already committed to Beavers on Thursdays so he couldn't attend G&T until last term when he went up to Cubs & began to do a different night. I'm not driving at the minute & picking him up late with a cranky ds2 is a pain, but I'll do it as I believe in stretching him as much as possible.
However all he has done for the past 6 weeks is gardening. Last night they were picking strawberries to give to a couple of year 5 girls who made milkshakes out of them. That's it. I grow my own veg in the garden so veg picking is not new to him & he can do it anytime he wishes :)
I thought G&T would be more academic & honestly I just don't see the point of what they are doing at the minute? Am I being precious?!
