On Monday morning we travelled into the city for T to complete his first piano exam. Ruth (his teacher) was there with several other students who all passed their Grade One exams! Well done T! We are very proud of you and all your hard work this year!
On Tuesday it was E's 13th birthday so we celebrated having another teenager in the house.
On Wednesday night we had the first of Iona College's Award Ceremonies at QPak at South Bank. This one was for the junior school and T received an award for Grade 5 Drama. Well done again!
On Thursday night it was the senior school's turn and E received a Bronze Academic Award and L received a Silver Academic Award, Academic Effort Award and Christian Leadership Award. I was soooo proud of them all!
E went to a Young Men's Deacons camp on Friday/Saturday and went to Coochiemudlo Island off the coast near Straddie. He had a great time and was absolutely exhausted when he arrived home in the afternoon after all the water sports. No photos unfortunately but imagine him with a pink nose and looking very tired!We have kept in touch with Adam this week on Skype and it is great to see him in Brazil. There have been a few problems with the aeroplane (in particular the paint job!) but hopefully they will get away on schedule. He is enjoying the experience but is very busy getting everything organised. They have had some time to sight-see though and he spent a day at Paraty soaking up the sun on Saturday so we don't feel too sorry for him!
