AFS happenings

---

We have just held our orientation for our new students and families at Shoal Point Beach. It was another perfect day in Queensland.
Last weekend was the post arrival camp at Rowallan Park, again perfect Spring weather, great fun, good kids.
They are not too fussed about the snakes, frogs and spiders but good food, good company and fun seems to even it out a bit.

Clapping game
