Bush Dance...



Last Friday was a late night at school as there was a Bush Dance! A Bush Dance is basically a Barn Dance with partners being swung, toes being tapped and dosies being doh-ed. Being on a one year contract with the possibility of another year being offered or maybe even something permanent raising my hand to help out with anything going is pretty much essential... if a little tiring! Having a year long contract has certainly been a settling factor for us here in Australia and with Beth getting some casual work, work from Hamilton as well as her side projects (more on those later!) we feel that we are getting somewhere. Getting something at the end of the school year will be very much make or break we think.



Anyway back to the Bush Dance. We all got into costume with our shirts and denim. Alfie seemed to enjoy the music and there were lots of other children to watch. He was quite a good dancer and seemed to enjoy the night. He did pretty well as Beth had struggled all day with his sleeping, i.e. he hadn't! A good time was had by all...
