LOTE : writing some of the Year 3/4 children's names in Hindi.
Year 7's working on their embroidery project.
Joining in with the Junior ILC Phase 1 and 2 classes during their folk dancing session.

Weekends were time for fun and a chance to show off our local flora at Kings Park, the fauna at the Caversham Wildlife Park


 
 Banksia
 A Koala in a gum tree!
Feeding the Kangaroos
Holding a heavy baby wombat!

and a leisurely al fresco lunch at Jane Brook

Another day it was really time to just be a tourist and enjoy the markets, shops and highlights of Fremantle.
Fresh fruit and vegetables - many identical to at home in India.
 Some very contemporary boomerangs at the Fremantle Markets
Fascinated by the Miniature pottery stall.
 
...and all too soon, it was time to farewell our Devjani and present her with some Australian content CDs as mementos of her time with us at Beaconsfield and to send our best wishes back with her to the Staff and students of Tagore International School.
The Year 6 class were very proud to be able to present to her a CD containing a Power Point titled "I am, You are, We are Australian". Each of the students had created their own small section of the presentation detailing where their ancestors came from in an attempt to demonstrate to her students back in India that Australia is a welcoming and friendly place where no matter who or what you are, that you can make a new start and become an Australian.
