What is THE important thing you can do for your child?

This week has been such a roller coaster with my personal life. My son finished his tests and is off on a holiday. The house is empty, and the cats are lost, hot and bothered- honestly, I am as well.

I need to get away from this emptiness echoing in me and around me. So I have thrown myself into work mode.

Apart from my interest in parenting and education, I do a few other things like property investment and management so things have been busy!

I have been posting creative writing prompts with book references throughout the week. You can find them when you scroll through this community page.

So this week I have finished/on course to finish

💥 sending emails to our mailing list to remind them of our book club meeting this Sunday with the lovely

@Shameem Fathima

. All details here OS community. DON'T FORGET- 30th June, 4pm

💥 the 50-page Creative Writing workbook that we are offering to parents who have signed up for it.

💥 emailing all who signed up to our creative writing challenge starting on July 1st with a Zoom link.

@Mandy Broomhead

and I are so excited about the challenge!

💥 putting together a revision plan template for July, August and September where parents get a revision plan with topics, and strategies to revise including things like tackling mistakes. All resources will be collated in the 'Revision' module

💥 revising the 'Mindset' module in the OS program with additional techniques to help children cope with the pressure and stress of exams.

💥 an interview with the lovely Charlotte Watson on the various ways to help children improve their well-being and balance exam pressure with mindfulness.

💥 Putting together something exciting for tutors and parents so they can find their best-matched tutors without the stress.

Most of all, if there is anything you take from reading this long post is that take time to spend precious moments with your child, nurture them, love them and most of all, value them.

There will come a day when you will have to happily send them away to wherever they want to go. Memories are ALL you will have.

So make memories.

You CAN do this whilst trying to give them the best prospects- whether it be the best school, university or the best chances for them- whatever is BEST FOR THEM.

❤️❤️❤️
