Day 4 - Canberra
Who would have thought that travelling on a bus for several hours could be fun? Yet our Year 6s and 7s always manage to pack good times into every moment - especially when our bus began our journey with a 'hot lap' around the world-famous Mt Panorama Racetrack!
The luminous yellows and greens of the fields between Bathurst and Canberra took our breath away, and crossing the border of NSW and the ACT was a first for many. We visited the Australian Institute of Sport and were able to use the fun equipment there. Following dinner at our Canberra accommodation we played some group games and Mr Lituri led us in a devotion.
