Allambie Heights Public School Carols...






Sunday night was the hectic Allambie Heights Public School Carols. The kids' favourite bit was no doubt the disco, Santa arriving on a fire engine preceded by elves on Harley Davidsons, and the buckets of sweets thrown out by Santa. Not sure how interested they all were in the carols themselves but we oldies always enjoy an excuse to throw down a blanket, bring a picnic and sing our little hearts out. Never as good as in Blighty mind you. A carol concert here is always more of a performance that one watches, rather than joining in heartily. Iona was taken home early by Isabelle which made it easier to stay close to Barney and Tenzin in the crowds as the lights were all turned out in anticipation of Santa's arrival and then the fireworks. Arthur was so busy having fun with mates that we met up at the end but saw very little of him all evening. Dunc was on BBQ duty and pack up at the end with the usual suspects of helpful Dads, hence his lack of appearance in the photos!
