It is very nearly 2018, so here is a thread to track your exercise goals.

It doesn't matter if you are new to exercise, or merely continuing your current regime. Everyone is welcome!

30 mins of resistance work for legs and bum

Will do a 5km run later too.

Congrats on reaching the halfway time mark Oub and hope you enjoyed London. We're away all next week but thinking I might use the gym at the hotel... at least get some running in on treadmill anyway!

Bit of a mixture tonight: Ri30 L1 and 6W6P L1.

I’ve passed the halfway mark regarding my 200 hour target. Still a few more days until I’m halfway to 250 days though...

I’m feeling tired today, so I just did the first level of Ri30.

30 Mins strength for legs and bum. One hour dance later.

Yes that* is tricky Oub.* If the other school doesn't use the same examination board for a particular GCSE subject then that could be very difficult. Good luck with deciding what to do Thanks

So far he’s been following the British curriculum (he’s currently in Y7 and has been at his current prep school since Y4). He’d be moving from day boy to boarder as he moves from the prep school to the upper school (they’re both on the same site). Lots of people start boarding at this point in time.

The main problem with taking him with us and using an international school is that we’re likely to be returning mid-way through Y10 (or possibly at the start of Y11), which really isn’t ideal exam-wise.

SophieLion · 14/06/2018 19:31

Wow Oub. Sounds like some tough decisions coming up. Has he been following an international curriculum or the British one so far? Are there British schools in China too? Mine are at a British school out here. They will do IGCSEs and IB.

Rest day. I’m going to the boarding house open evening at DS’s school (my job may be temporarily moving to China, and I’m trying to work out whether boarding would be less disruptive than moving him to an international school and then back again).
