Wonders of the World - In Lego

Today we went to the Brickman - Wonders of the World exhibition. As well as the models themselves there was information about the real buildings and how they were made into Lego models. We had plenty of fun making our own versions too.

Fosters Six and Seven

Today we picked up another 2 foster cats from Cat Haven. The tabby is Pedro and the black and white is Sooty.

Meanwhile foster fail Columbus is feeling the cold in Perth right now, as is foster fail Holly who doesn't have a picture because she lives inside a -10 rated sleeping bag!

Sketching Space

By L

We did another drawing lesson from the Virtual Instructor. This time it was on how to show spatial relationships in drawings. First we warmed up with some contour drawing of a pot of utensils.

Then we explored different ways to show space in drawings.

Dryandra

We joined some friends for a bush camp at Dryandra Woodland. The children had a great time getting back to nature with shelter building, biking, hiking and campfires.

One evening we took the night tour at Barna Mia wildlife sanctuary where we saw loads of native animals at the feeding stations.

Flying!

This week we took a trip to iFLY to experience free-fall skydiving without the parachute. The children had a talk about how the wind tunnel works and the physics behind it. It was then time to fly!
