Last night was the last night of Bible Study for the year. Private schools are out, public schools keep going to...the end of the week? Maybe?

ps. Dear NSW Education Minister: a teacher's strike at this time of year is the least disruptive time, even after a year of COVID, lockdowns, and whatnot. Also, don't say that the Teachers' Union hasn't properly negotiated: your government locked the Dept of Education into a marginal (inflationary) limit for salary raises, then tell the Teachers' Union that they have to negotiate with the Department for their pay, then tell the public that the Teachers' Union hasn't approached the Ministerial office about payrises. I'm sorry, that is, frankly, bullshit.

Anyway, we had a potluck with amazing food (approximate dishes arranged: one green salad, one potato dish, two desserts, and the hosts provided the meat and bread), the adults ate in one room, the kids ate in another, we had some good conversations and sharing about histories.

Now I have to work out how to phrase/arrange/get this happening...
