Days 4 & 5

So far, the trip has been incredible!

On Sunday, we went to Dumbhalah (a beach) and played over there. The water looked beautiful however we couldnt swim as there are crocs in it. Nevertheless we still managed to have loads of fun! we were skimming rocks, playing sport, playing with hermit crabs and some of the boys went for a little walk with some of the Aboriginals to a little pond where we found frogs and got to hold them! Following that we came back to the school and made lunch for ourselves, aswell as cooking lunch for our Indeginous friends.

On Monday in the morning we went to the church grounds and participated in circus activities and volleyball, where we had a ball. Following that we came back, had lunch and went off to go to the Elcho Island art shop. A few students bought some amazing artwork which they love. When we got back we cooked the Aboriginals lunch and then put on some activities for them. This includes, tie dying, sport, egg and spoon races, water balloon based games and three leg races. It was amazing to watch how much of a great time we put on for the kids and to see how happy they were (and always are).

Will get back to you soon, much love
