Schools Back

Well today is back to school eve.

All our planning and praying and packing has been for this day.
On New Years Eve Dunstan and I were in a plane flying to Brisbane from the Philippines. We literally hit the ground running, as we then had three ish weeks to pack, clean and store our stuff before flying to Tiwi.

Our first week was filled with more cleaning, orientation, PD sessions about "Restorative Practice" and hanging out with staff. Its been tiring but rewarding at the same time. Savouring the last moments before the students arrive tomorrow.

Some of you have asked to see pictures of the inside of our house, and so the night before the kids come, I finally feel ready to share some photos.

Here goes. Welcome to our home.

Here is our front door. Welcome to Family Group Home 4 (yes still into bunting)

Who. What. When.  Can you tell I've been working at a school these past two years? I think not.

Our un-decorated lounge area

Hope you enjoyed the little tour. Hopefully I will get to enjoy a cup of tea with some of you in person here....

Well i'll keep this one short. As always, we'd love to hear from you. We are thinking and praying of all our family and friends in the Brisbane/Logan area. whew. looks like we left at a good time hey?! You can always come up here... No cyclones forecast yet. ;)
