Another happy thread :-)

More happy tears! My DS2's last day at primary school, emotional leavers' assembly. All the children had a dictionary and leaver's book presented to them, much polite applause for each child. Then DS's name called out and a huge spontaneous cheer went up! I was bawling my eyes out!

oh lovely

ds1 finishes today as well, end of an era

Thanks guys. Hope your DS1 has a good last day, Ninja.

My DS2 was a bit bemused by all the tears and told me not to be a cry baby. Apparantly DS3 has written on his polo shirt, like they do on the last day, but he's written 'Kick me!' Nice to keep grounded!

Well done little EllenJane

I'm emotional enough thinking that they'll all be moving up a class....

Tears in my eyes too, that's lovely. Am loving the happy threads today

Ah that's lovely.

Always nice to hear something positive, and you can't put a price on popularity

That's lovely! Well done mini Ellen!

Thanks all. He's a lovely boy, completely unselfconscious and completely egotistical! His class are really generous, tolerant children. We'll miss them. Gotta go collect him from school now.

you must have been so proud, ellen.

well done mini-ellen

oh wow, how lovely!

I am choked up picturing it! Well done mini ellen

Love him, he just takes it as his due! Just finished his leavers' picnic/party. Can't quite believe that 7 years is over. But TBH, he's had enough of primary school. I hope secondary proves to be a positive experience.
