The trip to Hawthorn

On Wednesday we left the college at 9.10, drove for 1 and a half hours to visit an Indonesian restaurant in Hawthorn. The day started by a little bit of shopping for an hour, which was very enjoyable. There was Maccas, Subway, The Station Gifts, Aussie Disposals, Jellis Craig, Asian Mart, Safeway, Smiggle and a chocolate shop that was quite expensive. At about 11.30 we went into a restaurant called Nelayan. The meals were very cheap and very nice. It was very spicy and the rice was extremely tasty.

HPV is hot, hot, hot!!

At the beggining of the year the HPV crew entered in Wonthaggi. They did a fantastic job, but the important race is coming up in late November. Meribourgh is one of the main races of the year. For most of the year, the crew have been training intensly every Monday from 3:30-5:00. We start of with a few laps around the gym then a deep stretching session. After we have done that, we go upstairs and ride the bikes for about 20 minutes. When that's been completed, we do a circuit of different things which include things like, weights, skipping, push-ups, sit-ups, squats, tredmil & much more. This coming Monday are the tryouts for which team we will be in, but I'm sure everyone will do great :). Good luck to HPV in the coming races!

Spicegirls back in Australia!

On the 10th of October Western Port had a Talent and Trivia night, organised by the Parents and Friends group. The night kicked off at 7:30 with the first round of trivia of the 8 in total, Miss Blanch did a great job of hosting the trivia. There were several great acts which consisted of singing, dancing, comedy and bands! Lauren (Posh Spice), Tyler (Scary Spice), Miranda (Ginger Spice), Teagan (Baby Spice) and Amber (Sporty Spice) showed off their Spice World skills preforming to one of their biggest hits Wannabe! We started off nervously, but by the end we were all right into it!

While the judges made their decisions, the door prizes were drawn. The trivia night winners were one of the teacher tables called "Better than the Senior Team!" The solo talent winner of the night was Yawen because her singing act blew the crowd away. As the group winners were read out, Spiceworld's dreams were shattered! Taiko band won the night and "Grants Pornstars" were also not impressed! Ginger, Baby and Sporty all went and complained as this was not at all the way it was supposed to turn out!

Despite the poor judgment towards Spicegirls, it was a great night had by all and raised almost $1,700 making the night a huge success!
