Bear Farm?..

On Thursday we had our kindy field trip - we have one once a month. April's trip was to a bear farm. We were originally concerned as to what exactly we'd be seeing there, but it turned out to be pretty much just a big playground.

This was probably the coolest part, a sled ride down the side of a hill. The kids loved it, and so did Cam. He wasn't very good, though, one of my kindy kids Brian is totally outstripping him.




There were 3 bears at this bear farm. They were in a pretty small concrete enclosure, probably about the size of our apartment but a lot deeper. Though I doubt the depth helped them much because there wasn't really anything for them to climb. We stood over them and threw biscuits to them.

Apparently the biscuits were fit for human consumption too, or at least the kids in Cam's class thought so.


This is my kindy class and my Korean partner Chris. I take one half of the class and she takes the second half. This outfit they're wearing is their SLP tracksuit and they look so amazing in it.

They also have a school uniform they wear sometimes, and on other days they all dress in mufti. I have no idea how they know which day is which because there doesn't seem to be a pattern but my class are always dressed the same.


One of the toys was a giant ball pit with slides and stuff coming into it. This is Cam, again being dominated by a student. His own this time, Julia. She seems pretty sweet, she spent most of the bus ride challenging Cam to Gawi Bawi Bo (Rock Paper Scissors).

Looks like good fun. You two would fit right in with the kindy kids - you're really just big kids yourselves!
Good to be home, although the jetlag is a bit challenging for me back at work today. Lyn and I had a great time in Paris - will add some photos to our blog in a day or two when the jetlag allows. Went out for dinner with Nana and Meredith which was a bit surreal. Will write properly soon, love Mum

Sounds like a cool school trip! Like the ones we went on when we were really little (do you remember those Bamb - Pizza Hut, Tip Top and McDonalds I think!!).

Were the bears ferocious? Or were they drugged up?? Did you guys go into Seoul for the torch relay?? I guess not, as you appear to be unharmed at the present time.

Ohhhh bambi, is there anything you want for your birthday? I guess I'll need to get your present on it's way soon, do you have any special requests??

Love Bant xxx

OMG Penny just went for a close up view of your kids on the steps, they are sooooo cute! I love that they all are trying to do peace signs (most not achieving it). They're georgous!!
