This morning the girls played their flute and trombone in the Dawn to Dusk Band at the school's car boot sale. It basically provided back ground music while people shopped at the stalls, rather than it being an actual concert. I especially like the theme songs from various movies that they play. Ones like Man from Snowy River, Star Wars, Raiders March. Stephen managed to get himself a real bargain - nearly 300 Yugioh cards for $5 so that kept him busy while we were listening. Another of the Banksia Park concert bands played after the girls and Hannah was invited to play what she could with them - all sight reading but a very good experience. Following lunch of sausages and bread, we headed off to the piano concert. All the children played in this one and despite the nerves did well. No rest for the wicked - piano lessons and band practice Monday and then Michelle's flute recital on Tuesday night.
One of the piano students played the Adam's Family theme song and it reminded me of this film clip. It is so NOT the way that WE homeschool but we enjoyed it none-the-less and thought that you might also. Besides that, it gives me a good excuse to experiment with doing different things on the blog. Here's hoping that it works! (Edit: I couldn't get the video to embed in my blog but click on the link and you can watch it on You Tube.)
