Evan Hoflich

Evan joined a swim match on Friday. He did really well, coming in 2nd in freestyle and 1st in backstroke. He was really chuffed and said that he was “proud” of himself.

Evan has already created his Christmas wish list. Here’s what he currently has: – money – rabbit leash – mighty beans – lego – for Santa to live happily – Nerf gun – poptropica membership

Evan won player of the year for soccer this year. Chosen by the parent vote, the player of the year is the top award for the team and I was really pleased to see Evan win it. Evan was also tied for Sportsperson of the year for the team. Winners on the day were: Most […]

We went out with the Korean students out to Omana park, since we had the time on the weekend. We quite like going out that way as the scenery is great and it’s a good mix of farm and ocean. We went walking around the paddocks, hanging out with the sheep and the newly born […]

Evan’s last game of football was on Saturday and the team has really started to develop. We held our own against the rep team. The team photos at the end were really amazing: From Football pictures

Since we bought the new house, we’ve been deliberating whether we should move the kids to the new school, in the new school zone, or continue the kids in the same school. Moving to the new school would be good because friends would live in the same area, however we’re not keen on Evan going […]

Evan finished his first book yesterday – A series of unfortunate events (first book). His teacher started reading the first book, so I guess he didn’t read it end-to-end, but he finished it nevertheless and has already asked for the second book from his teacher. It’s great that he’s really getting into reading. We’ve always […]

Evan won player of the game again this past Saturday. Evan had 2 solo goals, as a defender, basically taking the ball from deep in their own half, around all the players on the outside and kicking a narrow angle on the goal and scoring! He was red hot! Matthew also scored, giving the team […]
