Student home-stays

Monday, August 29th, 2011

We had some student home-stays from Korea stay with us. Two girls – 12 years old, called Ji Yeong and Sun Woo. Both were lovely girls and got on with the kids so well. They stayed with us just over 3 weeks and went to Somerville intermediate.

We gave them a copy of our photos and gave them our email addresses, so maybe we will stay in touch.

The kids really enjoyed having other kids around I think. Both Evan and Lauren got a lot of attention from the girls – I think Evan in particular liked the attention from the girls. When the girls left, I think the kids were a bit sad.

I wonder what language the kids will want to learn – hopefully they can do a homestay themselves!

Netball

Monday, August 29th, 2011

Lauren has been playing netball for a few weeks now. She’s part of the “Future Ferns” netball league, which is a great name! I think she’s quite enjoying it, but she really is very talented in it, if I can say so! She’s been scoring lots of goals and is a good head taller than the average player. Today I got to watch her and she did awesome! She started out as goalkeeper and did a great job defending the goal – she’s so tall, the others really had to lob the ball high to get it in!

Then Lauren got to play Goal Shooter for the 2nd half and she did awesome! She was getting in tonnes of shots and goals. The other team had a really good Goalshooter as well, but it looks like the other players weren’t really too good and they let her down, so I think we must have gotten 10 or so points when the other team didn’t get any. Lauren played like a star and was often helping everybody out.
