It's almost officially spring. The
fruit trees are beginning to blossom and the field is dry enough for
football. We had a great afternoon at the cross-country - fabulous
sun and stunning performances.
The school is having a spring-clean.
We sorted out the technology shed and have created herb beds. We
demolished the vandalised eco-hut and are designing a new one.
At a combined room 1 & 2 class
meeting (sorry cricketers), students formed two committees to look
into whether we should keep hot lunches and sausages, and continue
the sponsorship of our East Timorese child. A further group are
designing a replacement eco-hut.
As none of the local authorities are
willing to deal with escalating cat numbers the school is working
towards a solution with the use of live capture cages. Older
children have been taught how to set the cages with pet food and
report the presence of caught cats. Homes are needed for child
friendly cats.
Market this weekend … come and have a
look at our new gardens, playground development and spend some time
and money with friends.
Thank you to our Year 8's - Naomi,
Ruby, Shea and Stephanie for organising this year's disco. The group
used their entrepreneurial skills and hard bargaining to negotiate
the lights, smoke, sound and food on $100. The red carpet was a nice
touch.
