Darwin Trip

I’ve been very slack with writing in my blog. I can only plead that I have been very, very busy.
On the 19th September I flew to Darwin for a week.
I had an all day workshop (three two hour workshops actually) on Saturday 20th Sept at the Leanyer Preschool.
Many thanks to Annette who allowed me to use the Preschool building.

Twenty one teachers jumped, sang, danced and played instruments all day long. So sorry to all those who were sore the next day. I hope that you still had fun. I certainly enjoyed myself. What a fun group of ladies they were. It was lovely to see smiling faces as we did the songs.
The funniest thing for me was that for the first hour, my glasses kept fogging up. Very weird.
It was only about 23 degrees inside, but it was a bit humid, and my glasses didn’t know quite how to react.

On Monday 22nd September, I was fortunate enough to do four workshops with children in kinders and schools. I always love being able to work with the kids. They are so honest and will tell you if they enjoy something (or not).

Tuesday I spent time at a child care centre, and Wednesday back at a kindergarten. The children were just delightful.

I took the afternoon off and went on a river cruise. I was very glad that I was inside the boat as we saw a lot of crocodiles. Argh!!!! Very scarey looking creatures.

It was back to work on Thursday as a presenter at the Early Learning Conference at the Charles Darwin University. You can see my notes here. music-for-fun-music-for-life-25th-september-2008-darwin-11

I met some great people, enjoyed the landscape and the weather ( 34 degrees with a bit of humidity), and even got to go swimming in the pool at the motel.
