First Day of School


The first day of school has finally arrived and William looked very smart in his uniform. We were all a bit nervous and didn't know what to expect, but after the initial classroom arrival chaos, he settled down to a puzzle with his friend Ben (who he knew from kindy). From what information I gathered, William and Ben stuck together all day and there was a story, some lunch and William managed to remember another boy's name - William!

Andrew and I coped well (assisted by some coffee and biscuits) and Amelia and I had quite a nice day together playing. Lets hope the rest of the week goes as well!!

Tasmania

What a fantastic place! Australia's best kept secret - green hills and valleys, big mountains and excellent salmon :) We stayed just outside Hobart at a friends place for Christmas and loved the clean air and the cool breeze. The kids enjoyed collecting the eggs from the chickens every morning and watching the "wobblies" (wallaby's) in the evening.

Happy New Year!


Happy New Year to everyone. We had a wonderful time in Tasmania over Christmas. Hope you all enjoyed the holiday season too.
