Here is a photo of the girls that I am staying with for 'cultural training' in Alice. They are all great girls and it's reassuring that we are all together. I will be travelling out to the community on Monday with Lauren (opposite me). There are two girls going out on their own!
We are staying for the weekend at Yirara College, it's a boarding school intended for the socialisation of aboriginal children, numeracy and literacy programs are replace with training in hygiene and life skills. Sleeping in the dorms and eating with the students has been quite an experience, everything is run by the sound of a bell and it is very strict. Tonight we get to take the girls on a trip to the circus (we are there mainly to ensure no one runs away) and tomorrow we are organising a scavenger hunt for the afternoon.
Now... Sunday night it is planned that the six of us will go into Alice and have dinner together, I think I it is fairly safe to say that I will take this opportunity to enjoy the last glass of red that I will be seeing for the next 10 ten weeks! The bush basher bush leaves at 8am Monday morning! Bring on Docker!
Love Shan x
P.S. Leachy! Have the best birthday party tonight!!! Love you.
