Last week we got the great pleasure of taking our Year 8 class to see Anh Do The Happiest Refugee Live! Year 8 English has been studying this text for a few years now and it is one of my…

For all of you out there who are a certain age, you will remember the TV show MacGyver. He has gone down in Gen X folklore not only for having an amazing mullet, but for being the guy who can…

Parkes Christian School has been a lot of things to me over the years. It started out as a job in the school office covering Hayley Ballantyne as she was off on maternity leave around 15 years ago. It quickly…

In the Christmas Holidays I took my sons to Canberra to watch the Australian women’s cricket team play the English womens side. While we were in Canberra, on a friend’s recommendation, we went to an all you can eat buffet.…
