10.01.2022 During the school holidays we went to the Caboolture Historical village where we had a great day learning about our local history. We had the opportunity to have a tour guide where we were given a great insight about the yesteryears and we also given the opportunity to be locked up in hand cuffs by ex wardens from Bogger Road goal. We spent hours looking through hundreds of relics, we loved the experience.

10.01.2022 Had a great morning today out bush walking with some lovely young people. It’s great having the opportunity to take people out of their comfort zone and explore new places and engage with them learning about each other along the way. John Oxley Park was a lovely local park which we didn’t know existed until today. Looking forward to our adventure on Friday swimming at Petrie dam.
