Dolphin Discovery Centre

Today we visited the local Dolphin Discovery Centre. The session was conducted by a marine biologist who has been working with the bottlenose dolphins in our area for the past 10 years. He was very knowledgable and quite a funny guy. The kids really warmed to him and got heaps out of the session. They are keen to head back soon so that we can see some dolphins. Unfortunately we visited at the wrong time of the day. Here they are with their certificates. once again thanks go out to one of the local Mum's for organising this wonderful event! Thanks also to the sponsors who enabled our visit to be FREE.

Weekly Report 21/8 - 27/8

We took a break from formal school this week.

Child Restraint Legislation is Changing!

From 1 October 2010 Child Restraint Legislation is changing in our state. I am continuously amazed by the number of people who choose not to correctly restrain their children when travelling in a vehicle! This legislation applies to ALL children under 7 years of age. Please take a look here and make sure you comply, please also spread the word!

And just for everyone's peace of mind. Flossy is currently restrained in a Safe n Sound Maxi Rider booster seat with Protecta Harness. Bugsy is currently restrained in a Safe n Sound Maxi Rider booster seat with Protecta Harness. Chicky is currently restrained in a Safe n Sound Royal Convertible Restraint in a forward facing position.

Update on Rusty at the Bowls Comp

Unfortunately Rusty didn't progress any further. He made it to the second round, so the final 16. We are so proud! He played some whopper bowls and rose to the challenge.

Rusty at the Aussie Indoor Bowls Championships

Rusty is away at the moment competing in the Australian Mens Indoor Singles Bowls Championships. He is one of 3 representatives from our state competing against a total field of 32 men. Here are some links to pics of him in action. He won this game, the first round so has made it through to the round of 16. Waiting to hear the results from day 2, go Rusty!!

ETA - All the links I provided were wrong :( Bowls Australia changed all their files around after I spent hours locating the ones of Rusty (there were hundreds!). I don't have the energy to do it all again so I've just removed the links.
