This week's snow ...November 2016

Winter is on the way, with plenty of time to build a snow fort at school on Tuesday!

Wednesday morning ...

Saturday morning ... Winter is here!

Boys and Birthday fun at '8'

 Last weekend's party was wild; perhaps it was the super moon, 

or simply that boys at 8 have huge amounts of energy and big appetites.  We spent most of the afternoon outside playing hide and seek, snake tag and "banane"... other games included

ankle balloon stomp, penny-stick relay and lots of Star Wars laser sword moves.

Halloween Piano Recital

Today's recital piece 'Skeleton for Tea' is an accomplishment following 12 weeks of piano lessons.  Stayed tuned ... we're looking forward to a Christmas recital in December!

Autumn colours

The riverside is a magical place of calm and light as autumn appears. 

Squeals of delight were heard from a small group of children, on our walk to school, as they stopped to watch the wind blow leaves off the tree in front of our house
 and swirl them to the ground.
