World Time

Our latest Art Project: 'The World Clock'

Everybody decorated a wall clock the way he likes it during our art program and because each one of us comes from a different part of the world, we show you the different time zones we're from.

When it is 12pm (lunch time) here for us in Melbourne, Yasitha's relatives in Sri Lanka are probably just starting the day, because it is 7.30am there.
 
In Pedro's home country Portugal most people are still sleeping at 3am.
Just an hour later at 4am it is the same for the people in Macedonia, where Muhamet's parents come from.
Warren's Mum came from Singapore to Australia. It's 10am there, when it's noon in Melbourne.
It's 9am in Vietnam for James' relatives.
The same for a part of Brandon's family living in Vietnam.
While it's 5am in Sudan, where Bol comes from.
Born in the same time zone, but in a different country: Varant shows you that it is 5am in the morning in Iraq, when we are having already lunch in Melbourne.

Soccer

Today we played indoor soccer with the guys from Life Options. It was a good game and Muhamet and Warren scored goals! This term we are going to play soccer in Seaford on every Thursday, because it is good exercise and heaps of fun!

Thank You!

After the swimming program in the morning we went to the Wallara OP Shop and got some old clothes for free, so we can mess around doing art. Big Thank You to Kim Winduss!

We've also been to our local Bunning's, because they sponsored us with materials for our wood working project. We said 'Thank You' and gave Bec Davine, who was very nice and helpful to us, a handmade card with photos of our work.

 Some more photos of us working on the project:
