School Holiday Activities

It seems like just last week I was preparing for the July school holiday and already now the October Holidays will soon be upon us. This is going to be the 3rd school holiday program i've put together now and already i am quite excited. To me the school holiday activities we run aren't just about having fun; although i must say that i've never seen a kid go home unhappy from anything we have done here. The school holiday activities are a chance for kids to come along and build up confidence aswell as overcome fears they may have while building up new friendships along the way.
So for parents not sure whether to be sending there kids along to Fairbridge for the next school holidays i would highly reccomend it. Not only does it help develop the childs ability but its a great way to get kids off video games and outside for some physical excercise.

This is the first time I have been into/onto a blog and after the convoluted application process to get the google account--finally I'm here.

I have been at Fairbridge village for three months now and settling in quite well. It really is an idyllic place to be based.

I have just curated the second exhibition in the gallery, containing photographs by Danielle Williams of Dwellingup. The third exhibition is for the benefit of Mental Health Week--which is the first week in October.

With the gallery operating quite smoothly, I am now attending to the other tasks on my list. An updated inventory system for the art/crafts in the gift shop and getting the proposals submitted for future classes and workshops.

I am excited for the future of the Arts Precinct at Fairbridge and am delighted to be part of it's development. JaneMc Artist-in-Residence
