If you listen carefully...

...on Mt St John, you can hear lots of different sounds.

Like the sound of lovely birds. - Vanessa

...And mooing sounds, when the cows speak. I think they’re saying hello to us. - Anika

You might hear dogs barking. - Paige

You hear the trees blowing in the wind. Listen, it’s like this...whoooo wooooo whisssh.
- Zara

We hear the chapel bell when it rings, just before we have a picnic morning tea. - Sophie

It’s peaceful on Mt St John. You hear peaceful quiet sounds. - Emma











There are different smells on Mt St John too!

Sometimes you can smell a smell of perfume and it’s really nice. - Alice

But sometimes you smell cow poo! - Anika

You can also smell a fresh air smell, which kind of smells like nothing.
- Paige

Mount Saint John is a beautiful place. It has beautiful flowers and beautiful bushes and trees. Trees that you can climb. Some aren’t so good, but some are REALLY good to climb. Ones that are easy.

    Never lose your sense of wonderment for the things we adults take for granted girls, we so often forget to appreciate them. Thank you for reminding me to stop and take the time to do what you do every day with Mrs Bayes and Mrs Smith - to enjoy and be present for every moment. Make every day special and one to remember.

    PS. Have you noticed that whenever you see Alice in photos, you tend to find Sophie too? ;)

  2. Thank you for your lovely comment Shelley!

    We have indeed noticed that Alice and Sophie are often photographed together - a reflection of their very special friendship perhaps? :)
