At this time of year many of us have children who are revising hard for important exams.
Most of us have been through this, some a longer time ago than others. It's easy to forget how much pressure and hard work there is behind this important moment in a young person's life. So much can hang on the results; further studies at a good university, a longed for career.
Here in France, a student taking the baccalaureat has over 10 subjects to revise in depth - hours and hours of preparation.
So be it in a huge exam room, or underneath a shady tree, be it for the baccalaureat, for A-levels, for end of course assessments, for university finals or even for a simple spelling test. ......
let's support them in our hearts and minds.



Just thinking of exams gives me sweaty palms. Such pressure. I wish them all the very best of luck and thanks for reminding us to show our support. It's not an easy time in a young person's life. All of a sudden feel very old for saying that!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to the students...it's a heavy time.

ReplyDeleteLove your images of students abroad.
My son is about to take his last final exams of High School next week.
I noticed you've included s&h in your etsy prices. I'm thrilled as I want some of that gorgeous ribbon. I'll get to it sometime this weekend!!!
