I live and work on Noongar Country as a school chaplain, teacher & aging surfer - The cure for anything is saltwater - sweat, tears or the sea. - Isak Dinesen https://linktr.ee/schonken
With two year groups on study leave, campus is much quieter, and I found a lovely place to prepare, in our Bay Cafe.
Hope you have a lovely Thursday.
This morning, we are holding two Remembrance services here at school and students are attending a third at the local war memorial. We take a defined moment out of our learning and growing to remember the sacrifice of those gone before us. We will remember them.
