School Happenings

Katy class joined forces with one of the other kindy classes to host the junior assembly today. As expected there has been much excitement all week! In keeping with their inquiry unit on the Olden days the assembly showed photos of the children faces superimposed to old photos which was very funny. Andy and Nana enjoyed watching the performance and commented that Katy spoke her line very well.



As I am now working on Friday's, Nana has been the stand in for assembly attendance.  Last week Nana attend the school assembly to watch Ella receive her SRC badge as she was elected as the school representative council for her class for the second half of the year. Ella was very excited as this and will be a wonderful opportunity for her.


Renos - Day 67 - 76

Painfully slow going due to sad circumstances - both the plumber and timber man have lost parent / parent in law in consecutive weeks.

Kitchen bench and drawers are in.




The timber flooring has now been laid.



Vanities, toilets and tapware have been installed. Just waiting for it to be connected to the sewage system. Love the plumbers sign on the toilets (not connected u flush it gush then u clean)!! Yep think I get the message!





Another weekend of painting for us. Only on Sunday though as Paul was still laying the floor on Saturday. We focussed on the bathrooms and laundry. Both bathrooms got the ceiling done twice and the walls once while the laundry only got one coat on the ceiling. The girls made their own couch out of pillows. Ella was content to lounge around as she wasn't very well meanwhile Katy disappeared next-door for a playdate with Sofia.


The house has been bare and off limits since Tuesday with the floors being sanded and having two of the three finishing coats applied. Final coat is to be apply on Sunday and fingers crossed we will be moving back in towards the end of next week before we head off skiing for a week!!
