Thank you

Rollerblading

The boys have enjoyed rollerblading every Sunday afternoon. They are slowly getting better, not as many falls as before. It is very entertaining but scary to watch them sometimes. I am proud that they have tried something new and enjoy socialising with other people.






"Stepping Out' Soccer Team

Thank you to Dad, Geoff Holman for the boys new soccer gear. They were so excited and have been wearing the clothes all the time. The boys usually have a game Sunday afternoons against other boys at the soccer fields but I am hoping to get them into a competition.

Happy Birthday to No and Chie

Last Thursday was both No and Chie's birthdays. As a treat, Jessica and I took the two boys out to dinner and then had a cake for them both. This was the first time for the boys to celebrate their birthdays and they had a great night. Now everyone else is very excited for their birthdays!

Our Vegetable Garden

Thank you Allan, Tracey and Kate Davis for our lovely vegetable garden. We really appreciated the time and effort you put into the gardens. Now we just have to wait for all the vegies to grow!





Our Chook Farm

Thank you to Alf and Callum Garnett for all the hard work you put into the chook farm. The boys really enjoyed helping you and learnt alot. Now we have 14 chooks and the boys have been taking good care of them.
