Carmel’s Brain Teaser
You’re in a dark room with a candle, a wood stove, and a gas lamp.
You only have one match, so what do you light first?

Maggie Chant – Good 2 months
Email received from Maggie currently in Denmark on Rotary Youth Exchange program. Answer: The match.
“Hello Carmel,
I hope you are well.
I am now two months into my exchange and it is going very well. I have done lots of fun things!!
- I had the welcome meeting the Saturday I arrived and it was lovely to meet all the exchange students.
- I then had intro camp which was also super good.
- My host family took me to Stockholm which was amazing and so pretty.
- I have started volleyball.
- I have also been given a horse to ride for the year, her name is Sara and she is an Icelandic Horse.
- I am enjoying school although not the 6.10 wake-ups
- I have also gone to Århus several times with other exchange students which were lots of fun.
Many thanks,
Maggie :)”

Sergeant’s Session
Sergeant Bruer, who also nominated himself as Co-acting President and then nominated himself as Acting President did a great job fining as many of us as possible. He even attempted to get fines out of Gabby, saying she keeps following us. Gabby’s response was “I was here first”, so who is following who you might ask!

Carmel’s Optical Illusion Photo
Stairs to Atlantis?
Or a perfectly mirrored bridge? The staggered construction of this beautiful bridge over the Manzanares River in Madrid, Spain, makes its reflection look like stairs leading up from the still water.

Just Because I Can
Leaving the Leeton TAFE campus on Thursday night, I among others was most impressed with the absolute glorious display of colour. Hope you find it as impressive as those that saw it in person did. If you look really closely you can even see a slither of moon.
