Most encouraging was the number of men from Charingfield who made the trip across<br />
to Balmain - truly inspirational to see.<br />
And afterwards we enjoyed the hospitality of the Balmain community, made so<br />
enjoyable by the fine catering style of their wonderful Leslieanne ably supported by Gary<br />
Wellsmore. Thanks to Gerard Brady for organising the event.<br />
And it was great for some of us to meet Cosmas Pulkapo (Papua New Guinea), who has<br />
just taken up residence at Albert Road Community for the three-month course he<br />
commenced last week. You are most welcome, Cosmas.<br />

EDMUND RICE CAMPS<br />
Over the past week of school holidays, we have been<br />
running some Activity Days at Mulgoa (pictured). Instead of<br />
a full week camp these holidays we have had some single<br />
days jam-packed with games, laughter and fun which has<br />
meant we are able to utilise the availability of our<br />
volunteers. Both days saw 30 ppl take part, and enjoy a<br />
day out at Winbourne playing soccer, dodgeball, twister,<br />
crocodile and face painting.<br />
Thank you from April and myself to all for the lovely<br />
messages on the arrival of our daughter Olivia. She is<br />
doing very well, happy and healthy, keeping us awake and keeping us smiling also, and<br />
your support has been greatly appreciated. Kind regards<br />
