2013 School Class : 
Andrew Year 5
Lachlan Year 2
Hamish Prep
Adelaide eKindy
Eliza has now graduated to the School of “Doing what Dad does”.
As was so eloquently put by a fellow Home Tutor tonight, we don’t have a school routine but rather a rhythm. 
Every child plays a different role in the ensemble.
Sometimes I feel like I’m doing the two step jive rather than waltzing gracefully through the day!
How I miss the carefree summer holidays….

    Sharon, she is loving it! Another of my kids who prefers the outdoors…We’ve had to coat her in insect repellent though.

    It sounds incredibly hard work but great fun sometimes as well.

    The two-step jive sounds far more fun than the boring old waltz … so easy for me to say though! Wishing you all a most successful year in the school room.

    Sounds like a lot of fun and hard work! Do you home school your children? I have so many questions!

    Our children are educated through Distance Education which is a similar concept to home schooling. It certainly is hard work and time consuming but it is also extremely rewarding and fun! Happy to answer questions!!
