Students from my school, plus my own children got to be on National TV yesterday morning - bright and early! lol! It was the TODAY SHOWs live weather cross, and it was all about The Children's Festival at Bankstown today. I've a few dancers dancing today, but here is a wee video from the TV of yesterday. Sorry about the quality. It's me videoing from my phone - onto the broadcast off the tv!! :)

Each year the children dance at Linnwood House. It is a historic house set up as a museum. It relies on donations and volunteers to keep it going. There is no government help to pay the rates or repairs etc. There were very few people there today as it rained this morning and I think it scared the visitors away. There were a few stalls selling crafty, cottage type goods. The dancing was lovely and the kids were glad to perform even for such a small audience. The spectators were mostly old ladies who had nothing but nice things to say to the kids. Ceilidh (in pink) Casey (in the white top) Brodie, Connor and Greer (in that order) Brodie doing the swords, Darcy and Aidan ready for their Pas de Basques and everybody on the balls of their feet for the fling (Lesley, Greer, Connor, Brodie, Ceilidh, Ashleigh, Aidan and Darcy in the front.

Term 3 will finish on Wednesday 24th September. Term 4 will recommence on Monday 13th October.
