Mortlake Music Awards


We were very proud of Ela today as she performed 'Jingle Bells' with a group of students who had been studying the violin this year as part of the Mortlake Public School Music Tuition program.

Although Ela had only been practicing for a few weeks, she played with confidence and was awarded with an achievement certificate at the ne of the concert. Well done Ela!

A harbour swim

Mark's latest escapade involved swimming across Sydney Harbour to cockatoo Island (from Balmain Baths). He and his partenr in crime Chris used this oportunity to get into shape for some longer swims coming up, including Bondi to Bronte and Coogee to Wedding Cake Island (and back). It was a fun morning for the kids - even if they couldn't tell Mark's orange clad head from the throngs of others, they still shouted 'Go Mark Go'!
