An appreciation of the simple beauty of the cosmos is entirely appropriate tonight as we are now home and debriefing (as you do!) after a 'cosmic' class play experience - entitled "The Order of the Heavens"...
...what an interesting and intense experience it is being on the periphery of the journey a class of 29 takes in the creation and performance of a play and all it entails...
...so many parts, props and people, so much excitement bubbling and fizzing, taking on responsibilities and the mantle of another, literally, just by being in costume...
...of course there are the awkward moments, the mis-timings, the forgetting of lines memorised and when the curtain just stays open too long...and each of these things are just small little parts of the whole - the fantastic, colourful, energetic whole that is 29 kids all working together to put a cohesive story (or in this case three stories!) to an audience...
...what a great day for them all - proud as a parent - especially of a child who has grown immensely more confident during the time she has been at the school - from shrinking away from a speaking part two years ago to offering to take a second part in this year's play...
...the mysteries and wonder of the way things work...cosmic!
