Update for 'everything'

Well, here we are at the end of the first week in March and already we are halfway through the term!  And it has been a rough start - almost every week fairly vicious fights between students, girls mainly.  Our new teachers are not believing us anymore when we say that this ISN'T our normal!  

The Region camp for Tennant Creek in April has been cancelled .. or postponed is maybe a better way of putting it.  We are all good as we don't have to pay for travel (for once!) and we are pretty financial, thanks to an amazing community that supports us incredibly well ... but the other centres are not so lucky and have been unable to do much fundraising due to Covid - so everything is on hold till next year now.  And as we haven't been able to re-book at Juno for next year .. I'm not sure whether we will still be be able to use that venue.  That will be a whole new can of worms to deal with.  

I have been trying since the middle of February to get our craft ladies together for a meeting but it seems we are all busy.  Everyone probably NEEDS some crafting downtime, but life keeps getting in the way!    😕

However, we have officially renamed our group to 'The Desert Stampers', and are now a brand, with T-shirts with a thorny devil logo.  Crazy, I know, but hey!  

We are having a coffee get together tomorrow,  just 'cause, and to collect our shirts.  I'll post a picture once I have them.

I need to start posting more photos - but as I'm usually at work when doing this, it doesn't often happen.
