19 DEC - 9:15AM - SCHOOL

At this school we were given groups of students in sets of 20, and given space outside on the pavers in the cold wind to work with them.

We did six 40 minute sessions, repeating the same dialogue & skit over and over. The benefit of this was that different people got goes at different things, leading skits, dialogue roles, warming up the kids and so on. It was quite mentally exhausting.

In the middle of this the school gave us lunch in a music room. Lunch was seafood soup, omlette, green chicken curry, vegetables and mandarins.

REFLECTIONS:
Jono:
"I thought the small groups went a lot better."

Astrid:
"That day was the most exhausting and doing the same thing over and over. It was really good that everyone had a go at everything."

Deb:
"It was really good to tell them about family with photos in small groups."

Craig:
"We played touch footy with the kids the teachers didn't normally want in their class. It was good."
