Our first team foxes win!

On Tuesday, Summer and her teammates played a great game of netball and won! The score was 8 to 12!

Back to School

Today, it was Summer and Taj’s first day back at school. To get to School today Summer and Tara walked and Taj rode. At school Summer did all her in class subjects and for sport did floorball. After school she had Netball . Taj did his in class subjects and had a lot of fun on the oval while Tara was racing around doing boring Mum stuff.

Last day of Dunsborough

Today, our team walked around our block in Dunsborough. We also played tag and had dinner together with some friends. In the morning we saw our cousins at their house. It was a great last day in Dunsborough.

Walking through the bush

Today, our team walked through the bush of Dunsborough looking at the beautiful flowers and trees stretching far overhead. We walked around our property twice each and had a really good time. Then after that our friends came over to our house and we had a play date,it was very fun.

Dancing in Dunsborough

Yesterday, our team walked around Dunsborough and Busselton exploring the amazing area and shops. Then we went to visit our family friends baby! After that we went back to the house and the kids did a dance performance!

Today, the team journeyed to Dunsborough stopping along the way to visit our grandparents. We went to the local park were we played soccer and frisbee.

Flying to Perth from Sydney

Sydney finale

Today was the last day of our holiday in Sydney - it was very interesting. We went to the Maritime Museum and learnt about boats, Ancient artefacts and the history of the Sea. After that we went to Timezone for games and fun!

Sydney Opera House

Today our team went to the Opera House in Sydney. We saw the harbour bridge and went to the wild things experience were Summer and Taj drew pictures and did Lego. Walking around and exploring was fun and interesting. We also went to the Lion King Musical.

Bondi walk

Today we have been walking in Bondi for our holiday in Sydney. It was a great way to start the journey. 

I'm fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Australia is a big country, and for those living in remote, rural and regional areas, access to immediate care isn’t a guarantee. For some communities, the nearest hospital is eight hours drive away.

This October, I’m taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need. By going further, I hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).

Every year, the RFDS reach more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary healthcare services. That’s one person every two minutes!

Together, we can keep the Flying Doctor flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to my challenge today!

So far this year
I’ve helped provide...
