2015-04-04 Freo Street Festival

We went down to Fremantle for the Street Festival. We saw some awesome performers - break dancers, actors, mimists, and we got some nice food too from Joe's Shack!

We also went on this free-running park where we did some tricks and climbed up big containers and looked at everyone from above - it was fun!

2015-03-29 10 Years In Perth! Wow!

Wow, 10 years in Perth! Who would have believed it! We celebrated in the coolest way - we decided to head into town to catch the Noodle festival, and we sat in Nortbridge just getting food from the stalls - amazing, and really good fun!

None of us can believe it has been 10 years!

2015-03-22 Interschool, State Qualifications #2

Clara: I had my Interschool comp and I felt I did really well. I only just came second in my sprint, but I'm going to train really hard for next year! I was also in the relay, the grand relay, pass ball and leader ball - I had quite a few ribbons on me by the end of the day. It was a really fun day, and the weather was awesome!

Aiysha: Had the State Qualifications #2 which was over two days. I was pretty disappointed with my scores on the first day, but managed to place on the second day. We performed every apparatus on each day, which was great practice.

C: Well done Rox on your interschool, I wished I was there! Well done Paish on your comp, it will all come good.

S: Winter's coming - we're not ready!

2015-03-21 Bye Duyen and MJ, Dance Viewing

Aiysha: MJ is sooo cute! Hope to see here more next time she is around!

Clara: Had mu viewing at dancing this weekend - I was a bit nervous, but it was fun and exhausting! Still practicing for interschool!

Went for a sleepover at Georgia H's, played spotlight, had pancakes, got to bed earlier than the others, saw a snake, and their dog followed me around all the time! I loved it! It was fun!

C: Loved the viewing for dancing! Very impressed!

S: Go Roxy!

2015-03-17 GM + GD, State Qualification #1

S: We did loads of when Grandad Brian and Grandma Sik came along. Unfortunately lost Grandad's valuable red book perhaps on the plane, but we did all we could to find it and cancel cards.

Went to Mullaloo beach and had a few swims in our pool playing catchy to start with, then went up to Port Denison like last year, and managed to see 4 sunsets in a row. Each day we had an excursion up and down the coast to secluded beaches, and one to Geraldton. We had a couple of games of scrabble, and we watched some cool movies at night while we were there.

I managed to start some longer runs on my ankle, which was great, and managed a 36 minute beautiful morning run along South Beach, which will be unforgettable how nice it was. We managed to miss the cyclone too which was coming down from the north.

When we came back we went for several coffees at Yelo cafe - lovely muffins and the best coffee! We also managed to catch a Western Force game vs the Rebels - unfortunately some crazy decisions early on cost them the game. What a shame.

Aiysha: I was a little frustrated with my comp, and know I can do so much better. Bars I was so disappointed with, but I hope I can concentrate on them before the next comp. I still placed on a few things, but know I can do so much better.

Clara: I loved calling Daddy on the phone while he was away, and we went to play tennis when he came back and practice for interschool. It was fun.

C: I missed the doodis!

Smokey: I didn't!

2015-03-01 My Party, Finally!

Clara: I got the first merit certificate of the year from Mrs Rubidge - I was so proud! I also finally had my party - I was not well the day before, but I was fine for my horse riding, and we managed to get into the pool aswell. Georgia H and Aaliyah came along, and it was so much fun. We even got to lead the horses back to their paddock! I had a great birthday party, even though it was a few weeks late :-)

I also got selected for Interschool sprints, long throw and long jump, as well as leader ball and pass ball. Wow, I'm going to be pretty tired! I'm going to have to practice hard!

Aiysha: Had my second round of netball trials, and I was so proud of how I played. Playing against 15 year olds, and I think I had the best game I ever played! It was so much fun! I can't wait to start the season - my whole team seems so good!

We had our faction swimming carnival at Mater Dei, and I came second in my crawl and in the relay, but I got chosen for Interschool! That's pretty cool.

C: How come Steve can trot so well!? I'm jealous!

S: My trotting was the best!

Smokey: Those horses aren't as cute as me!

2015-02-22 Netball trials, High Flyers Party, Sleepover, Talent Squad

Smokey: I love the dog pound!

Clara: For my dancing I finally managed to show off my round-off backflip - I was so proud.

We finally received our gym mat that was a present from Grandma Sue and Grandpa Arthur.

I started my first netball training with Aaliyah - a bit crazy, and I was not use to the nets being so low!

Went to a High Flyers party for Amelie's birthday party - it was fun!

We took Aiysha down to Challenge Stadium again for some gymnastics thing. We spent the afternoon on City beach, which was fun! We had dinner there and everything!

Aiysha: Netball trials pt 1. - wow, the standard is so much better than Edgewater PS. I'm gonna have to step up my game! We had a sleep over for all gym girls at Emma's, which was pretty cool fun!

The judges were practicing their judging, so we went down to practice our routines for them, which was good practice. I felt I did okay, and getting better for my comps.

C: Iluka walk - saw dolphins, Clara was on her scooter, Paish was tired, it was windy, and we stood on the rocks at Burns Beach - lovely!

S: Running on my ankle for first time - not that great, clicking and still pretty painful. Night out with DoT at Botanica, which was great to see everyone.
