back to school

back to school - to school for River for the first time - spent the day driving between swimming lessons, buying new school shoes for the boys and looking for good yellow things for Gully to use as props for his swimming carnival tomorrow.


he's in Pelis - their house colour is yellow.  thankfully his goggles are yellow.


the Peli pennant i have in mind to make for such events will have to wait for the athletics carnival later this year.


just returned from a very long and informative p&c meeting with our new (temporary) principal...  the meeting went for over 2 hours and was the most informative and interactive I've been to... have committed to putting 2 options to the next p&c for the purchase of new outdoor picnic benches for the playground.


River hates me calling it the playground... "there's no play equipment there mum!  it's not a playground, don't call it that!" he says... maybe I can bring this up at the next p&c meeting.
