Last week she had a letter from the headteacher, asking if she would like to take part in this years "Act your age" production. She had a small part in last year's production, and this year it's only open to Year 5 & 6 (she is in Year 4). However the head has asked if she would like to take part as she was so fantastic last year!

So, yesterday they had rehearsals and she has been given one of the major roles! We spent a good 2 hours giong over her lines last night and she is 99% word perfect. She's playing Nancy in "The world of Dickens" and her cockney accent is hilarious!

I'm so proud of her. Hopefully, if all goes well at court and MrKB wins custody we'll be able to send her to drama classes. She really has a talent.

? That's really brilliant news - and really nice that she's got something else other than the court case to focus on.

Aww bless her!

It's great when they find their "niche" so early on.

My son has joined every after school sports club going since he has been at primary school but has never been picked for a school team - he has been so disheartened by this (sports is not his "forte" but he keeps trying!

He has however been the narrator in school plays, been chosen to be the school road safety officer, and also went to a borough schools conference thing where they were members of pretend governments(all had "government roles" ) and was chosen as prime minister - so I think he is falling into public speaking type roles - he is 10 and very confident and eloquent when speaking in public - he still wants to be on a school sports team though!

I have to hide the tears and watery eyes, MrKB would never let me live it down if he caught me welling up at a school production ?
