Interesting Signs

These were some interesting signs that were in the Ration Shed Museum. We thought we could use them at school.

Trip to Cherbourg



Susan did a prac for her nursing degree at a place called Cherbourg. It is an Aboriginal Community about three hours west of us. She was working at the Community Health Centre. We decided to go and visit her. We had to check out where she was working and living. She really enjoyed her time at Cherbourg. She got to spend lots of time working with children. The staff realized she was good with kids. Must be all the work she does with Ben and Emily that prepared her for the job! :) She went with a man they call "Pickles" to do health checks on Aboriginal children. He did not usually like taking students with him because they slow him down. Susan said that they broke the record on how many children they saw that day. I think Pickles was pleased with her work.

Benjamin's 10th Birthday Party

Benjamin is 10! Can you believe it? We had a birthday party for him at the go-kart track and waterslides. We got a good deal since one of his friend's dad owns the place.
