Day 337 - A musical evening



I know, it's a very blurry photo, but the others weren't much better. This is what you get with my camera at dusk. At least I recorded Mr 16 playing for the last time in his school's string orchestra. In fact, this is his second last day at his current school before he goes to VCASS next year. This little outdoor concert precedes the annual end-of-year middle years chapel service.

Nothing else to report. I took some photos from this position of the school surrounds, including this tree from far away, a little closer and closer still. One of the ovals is being excavated; I'm not sure what for. All the tractors and such have gone to bed. And so should I.

Day 215 - Chapel progress


Another lovely Winter day. Lovely if you ignore the fact that we've had so little rain all Winter. I stepped outside of the school library to take a photo of building progress. The chapel is taking shape. Funny how I love the skeleton better than the external structure. It's looking less interesting now.

Day 138 - Chapel construction



I teach in a Catholic boys' school. A new chapel is in the process of being built. Today the construction site attracted interest when the crane lowered the unusual-shaped concrete (I presume) roof bits. Technical, arent I?
After a very foggy, crisp start, the day turned out to be a glorious one. I didn't mind lingering a little to soak up the sun. I wonder how long it will be before the chapel is completed.
