Shrove Tuesday - International Pancake Day

Well, I had the pleasure of spending my afternoon in the Year 1 Classroom helping the kids make pancakes for Shrove Tuesday.

Needless to say after making 8 batches of pancakes, I was well and truely pancaked out!

The kids had a great time - the best part of all was definatly the eating!

The Junior Jabiru Golfers

All the junior golfers were presented with an encouragment award - a golf ball and a bag of tees. Then everybody enjoyed a BBQ Lunch.

The Team

Zac, Andy, Taylor and George - Ready to Tee off

Zac "The Golfer"

Zac has started junior golf on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.

Today he played in an Ambrose - they paired two junior golfers up with two adults . They all play a shot and then, continue playing from the best shot.

The idea is to help the kids learn the game.

Dad was the caddy, Mum,Kloe and Jarred the cheer squad.

Tee off was 10.30am in Hot/Humid 35 degree temp.

Yum! Nutella!

All was too quite in the house - something was not quite right.....

Look what Mum found Jarred doing.

Look Mummy Nutella - yummy!

Big Shoes to Fill

Jarred's First Day at Kindy

Jarred started at Jabiru Kindy on Thursday 16th Feb - he will be going two days a week - Thursdays and Fridays.

Nourlangie Rock

On the 12th Feb with all went on an adventure and climbed Nourlangie Rock.

It was a very warm, humid Sunday morning but the scenery made the walk and climb well worth it.

Our Little Kloe

Little Miss Kloe is now in Year 1 - she if often mistaken for a preschooler!

Kloe has a wonderful teacher this year - Miss Elissa Zangara.

Zac

Zac was happy to go back to school - he had Ms Rowe for Maths last year and was happy that she will be his teacher for this year.

Ms Rowe is very lay back which suits Zac just fine!

Micaela

Micaela was a bit nervous going back to school. This year sees her go into Middle School. She had no idea where to go or even who her teachers would be. I'm sure it won't take her long to work it all out!

Back to School

Micaela 11 now in Year 7

Windows On The Wetlands Visitors Center

We drive past Window on the Wetlands all the time and have never stopped to have a look.

On the way into Darwin on 21st Jan we stopped and had a look. The kids loved it!
There were so many things for them to touch and look at.

Melleny's Birthday

I was very spoilt on my birthday - I was taken out to dinner at the Croc by my Wonderful Husband and beautiful children. Then we came home and had yummy chocolate cake made by Micaela and friends. I was also given a video camera for my Birthday - so look out everybody!

Home and Away

As Chris and Jarred would say Dun,Dun,dun -Dar.............

Gripping "Home and Away" what will happen.......

The Making of a Volcano???

Micaela, Sarah and Georgia decided to make me a birthday cake. We had a small disaster in the kitchen when the cake pan they used was just a little to small for the amount of mixture they put in. The chocolate cake erupted in the oven with cake flowing all in the oven and burning.
MUM! Help!!!! came the cry.........
Mum managed to salvage the cake, and the near disaster turned out to be very Yummy indeed.

Thanks Girls!
