Eden's Art journal

Eden is thoroughly enjoying the art class she is going to.  She is learning to work in lots of mediums and since there are only 5 girls in the class she is getting quite a lot of direct instruction.  Some days she will just spend all morning doing her art.  She is in a group with a lot of older girls and the class is directed at getting a GCSE which is a qualification for around 16 year olds and even though the teacher feels she is capable to go ahead and do it, I feel like we will hang on for another year or two.  I want her to get the best mark she can and not be disappointed so right now she is just gaining invaluable skills that she is going to need in the future.
