A busy end to Term 2
CULTURE LESSONS AT THE WAKALA CENTRE
Kamus was interested in the old tools and weapons which are housed in this building. It is called the Wakala Centre and it is essentially the Balgo museum. It’s a great place to get lost for a while. |
CULTURE AFTERNOON AT OLD BALGO
The Elders were telling the students about their time here at Old Balgo before they let the students go and investigate the ruins. |
Cathy has found some bush tucker. |
A BOMBER SUPPORTER IN A FIELD OF EAGLES!!!!
COOKING WITH THE KIDS...PIZZA TODAY!!
RECONCILIATION
This was the part the kids were looking forward to the most…..morning tea. We are all excited when we have cake and biscuits. |
NOT QUITE THE BLOOD BANK
A WEEKEND WITH DOUG AND WENDY
In the shower cubicle in our hotel, little Kevin popped out his little green head. He had it made, just sitting on the window sill eating the bugs. |
PREP STUDENTS COME TO VISIT
The Kinder kids came to visit our classroom to give my kids cards to celebrate their Reconciliation. They were seriously cute. |
Our class invited the Kindi’s to come for a walk with us. My big kids all took the hand of one of the little ones and we headed off. |
My class was walking along the dry creek so it was too far for the little ones. We said goodbye to them and headed on our way. We found an old motor bike where my kids stopped for a picture. |
FOOTY DAY
YES IT DOES GET COLD!!!!
OUT AND ABOUT
On the weekends Jeff and I do a 5-6 km walk out of community
and into the Pound. We often meet kids
on our walks as you would have seen in many of our blogs. They are always keen for a photo. |
ELDERS DINNER
TIME TO BE MUDDIED
At least they didn’t put it in my hair! |
Here is most of our staff with our mud treatment. |
If you didn’t know better, you would think that we were at
the beach. |
This photo is of the whole group. |
I got to join Sadie with the Damper making. She did it so beautifully while I got to the
same result but with so much dough on my hands and much mocking by everyone. |
My skin Auntie Magda wanted my first damper, it wasn’t my
best but she was happy with everyone I made. |
On the way home one of the 7 cars came across this giant
Black Headed Python. It made a yummy tea
for Magda and Cathy….which was good since the water goanna was so elusive. |
wow.... you have been busy! great photos!!
