While last week started so heavily, mourning the loss of a friend, it ended well with a lot to smile about.
I loved seeing the kids' term science projects on display. Blossom's straw bridge she designed and constructed with her friend took out the Best Design prize. PL's term project was to build a water tower out of as few pieces of A4 paper as possible. The tower had to support a full water balloon. PL's team built one out of four pieces.
I loved watching the Year 1 & 2 end of year concert. PL's class showed everything they had learnt about The Netherlands this term via two dances. What's not to love about 24 year twos performing a clog dance!
We were proud of Blossom as she received the class award for Outstanding Progress at Presentation Day.
I never tire of the inside of the Sydney Opera House. It takes my breath away every time. We saw the most fabulous production of the ballet "Manon" here on Saturday afternoon.
And I finally posted my Christmas cards.

I am glad your weekend ended well...
The card is fab and well done to your children. YOu must be very proud. And why not?
Well done, Blossom – what an amazing looking bridge! Some good engineering in there.
A great end to your week, with clogs and all.
Oh well done on so many fronts!
I bet that ballet was fabulous? Although that main character...
My Christmas cards? New Year's Cards. Or perhaps Easter cards.
My Christmas card consists of an email containing many photos and some words. People seem to like it and it gives me pleasure to do it..
Well done Blossom and PL.
Very satisfying indeed.
The resilience of the human spirit is a marvel. you found joy in the little stuff, exactly where it is always hiding!
Tracey said it well!
You are setting the bar too high on those Christmas cards. I haven't even taken the photo yet, much less addressed, stamped or mailed them. Perhaps by New Year's Eve....
I normally send the cards by the first week of December. But the stars have not been aligned this year. Nor for anyone else it seems as we have only received 1 card so far.
Or perhaps our friends are trying to tell us something...
Well done Blossom and PL.
I'm thinking about cards, but actually doing them... maybe tomorrow???
Sounds like a perfect way to end a sad week.
Congratulations to your clever little budding engineers.
No cards send here and about 3 received by post.
My son just finished his science project - toothpick bridges - testing truss design and capacity to bear load.
we are jubilant it is finished.
Are they the Art by Kids fundraiser cards? I adore those and need to replenish my stash. That is on our holiday activities list.
