Grandparents Day


What a lovely day,Bob and I went to grandparents day at Holy Family school which some of our grand children attend.
After talking about the things we did in our school days,the games we played,we were entertained by some of the children singing and dancing.
Following this we were served with a scrumptious morning tea.
Then it was back to the classroom for more interaction with the children,after which we had a lovely lunch.
