The Icebreaker

The school held a parent Icebreaker on Friday night.  We knew this was a large school but we were not expecting such a beautiful evening! As we walked onto the campus from the parking area, we heard wonderful music - band and soloist - and saw lights and umbrellas spread across the lawn.  The band turned out to be the school band.  The soloist, also one of the girls.  The young ladies passing canapes were self-possessed and lovely.  We ended up chatting with two other Year 11 couples, both of whom couldn't praise the school enough.  So I guess we got the affirmation we were looking for, in case we were looking for it.  At the open bar, I enjoyed a couple of glasses of Australian bubbly, which turned out to be not bad at all.
