Swimming Lessons at Hilton Brown

Wow!  This years swimming lessons are over.   You all did incredibly well with your swimming.  Special mention must go to Jun.  Well done on your HUGE improvement.  When you first started you didn't want to even put your face in! BUT now you can float like a starfish.  AWESOME!

Bula!

Jade is in Fiji.  I wonder if she stayed at this hotel?

I wonder if it will be the best holiday destination she has been to?

What is the best place you have visited and WHY?

This was one of The Chambers Family best holiday destinations.  It was up on the Sunshine Coast in Australia.  We stayed at these apartments AND the BEST thing was the 75 metre swimming pool.  That's almost as long as a rugby field.  The pool snaked around the front of each apartment.  It was AMAZING.

This picture is of a place in Korea, on Jeju Island.  I wonder if Sungju stayed here?

I'll be going up to my Mum & Dad's for a couple of days.  This means that I will be helping my Dad around the property. Gardening, weeding, mowing the feijoa paddock and orchard. The photo below is of me mowing the paddock before Christmas. 
I'll also be coming into school to get things ready for term 3.  What a busy term it will be!

My Exciting Weekend - By Slithering Sam

I have gone away for the weekend. I went on a big plane. They had delicious sushi and licorice allsorts on it too. I have seen a really big building that was designed by a man named Jorn Utzon and was opened by Queen Elizabeth on the 20th of October 1973. I also went across a structure that was opened on the 19 of March 1932. The local people call it 'The Coat Hanger.' Can you guess where I am for Queens Birthday weekend? I can't wait to see you all on Tuesday so I can tell you all about my travels.

Love from
