A bad story

One day,I woke up in the morning then I prepared breakfast for my daughter to feed her so she refused it, then I tried to leave her for a few minutes to watch something that she liked, but it didn't work with her.
After that I realized that she was sick with high fever and she pointed at her ears also. Usually on the weekend her GP is closed. Terrible!! Terrible!!
We took her to a medical center, the doctor said she had a sore throat,just keep giving her Panadol and Neurofen.
The same day at 7:30 in the evening, she started shivering her hands and her lips turned nearly black with high fever.
I took her to hospital very quickly, we stayed there for 3 hours, there were no Doctors to check my daughter only training Doctors, who don't have experience. They checked her ears,her throat and told me it was just a virus in her throat may be after 3 days she will be allright.
Finally the next day I went to her GP with a letter from ST.George Hospital, then the Doctor had a look at my daughter and he told me absolutely she needed antibiotic and drops for her ears.

Physical punishment

Physical punishment to discpline children is not a good way of bringing up children, most parents suffer from this problem.
In my opinion if you punish your child physically that will make a bad impression in their brains and also this behaviour may effect their own lifes when they are grown up, I think they won't forget it.
It is heart-braking to see these children being upset and angry from this abuse.
Some children suffer some physical damage like brain damage, ears injuries.
According to stastics "Reported cases of child abuse have increased by 63% in the last 10 years and over 3 million children are at risk of exposure to parental violence each year.
There are many ways to discpline children by isolating them from friends, naughty corner, not to go away for a holiday, not to give them pocket money.
If you always hit your children physically, they'll other children, friends, even their parents because they do what they see. It is very hard to understand children what they want, what they think, what they do!!!!!!!!!
If you have any problem with your children, don't hesitate, there are professional people to help you with this problem.
Please don't make children unhappy if they make a mistake teach them, be nice, talk calmly, be a friend to them, always surprise them by bringing them presents that they'll like if they're good.

Excursion to Sculpture by the sea

Make a Smilebox postcard

Exursion to Bondi Beach and then to Tamarama beach
Before this excursion happened ou teacher organised a lot of things to have a look beforehand.So our class joined AMEP_A class, the teachers thought it easier to talk about this excursion for this couple of classes.
Anyway they gave us some information about what we were going to see and what we had to do? We talked about this exhibition which is called "Sculpture by the sea" where there are many sculptures according to their numbers, with their definition about their materials, size, etc. And also we talked about the time and where we were going to meet? So every student has this sculpture and his no. that's was our work.
Last Tuesday we went on an excursion to see an International Art Exhibition called"Sculpture by the sea" from Bondi Beach to Tamurama Beach.
The weather was amazing,sunny no wind with 27 degree temperature, it was really excited to go there.
I woke up in the morning early at 6:30 The weather was amazing,sunny no wind with 27 degree temperature, it was really excited to go there,so I started to organise everything for me and my daughter.
We ate our breakfast very quickly and got dressed then I dropped my daughter off to child care centre.After that I realized that I forget my daughter's lunch at home .
i was really lucky because my husband was with us so he was in a hurry to grab her lunch,I waited for him, I took some photos of my daughterin the child care centre and played with her.
Then I bought some coffee and I went to Kogarah Station at 9:00 to meet my classmates who were in the queueto pay for the fare of the ticket and some of them were talking.At 9:16 we caught the train to Bondi Junction and then we caught a bus which was only prepaid, while we waited we talked with teachers and with classmates about some terrible news happened in Sydney.
We rode the bus and after 15 minutes we arrived to Bondi Beach which was wonderful with their long beach, nice views,straightaway I remembered my country I actually felt homesick and it was the first time I went there.
So my classmates bought hats to protect their head from the sun also they put suncream too. I was excited to see this Exhibition so we walked along the beach, we saw many sculptures ,many designs,many colours,many decoration ,many views, I couldn't imagine "What's the meaning of that", it was hard to understand every sculpture. There were many tourists visited this occasion which was fabulous in their location and view. I couldn't explain my feelings that day we really enjoyed it.

Smoke gets in your eyes

The Editor

Dear Sir
I agree with Fresh Air Felicity about her opinion of smokers, we're fed up with them because Smoking causes a dirty mess and pollution in our city.
Especially it's really dangerous for children to breathe this foul_smell.
Also do you know the butts on the footpath end up in the water when it's rains, they're spread very quickly into it, which is very dangerous and really bad for our environment.
What's more it's extremely disgusting when you are next to smokers then you have to put your clothes on the line or wash them.
We certainly need to fix this huge problem and make Smokers do it in a designated area.

Feathedale wildlife park

Last Tuesday AMEP classes went on an excursion to Featherdale Wildlife Park, it's location is in Donside(near blacktown).

Last Semester students of AMEP helped with the Health Expo and earned money so the Student Association helped us with this excursion by paying all the fee entry so most of the students were happy with that(free).

AMEP teachers hired a bus which was very comfortable, and also all students were sitting on their seats. They thought it was much easier than to catch train and bus.

We met in the morning at 8:45 on the Princess Highway behind Building A, then I saw my classmates were sitting there and waited for the bus to come, while we were waiting we talked about our holiday and what we did during it. Some of them did something and the others were boring.

We left there at 9:05 and we arrived to the park approximately 10:10 so it took 1 hour, when we arrived there one of the teachers stood up and started to explain to us what we should do, and also she told that we couldn't feed the animals with our food there's a special food for them which was really interesting but I didn't try it, and also a passport for this Park inside which were some pictures of animals to stamp them where the animals are.

Everyone entered the Park, we split up into groups and I thought all of them were excited to come in and have a look what's inside because we had a lots of work about this day what we did, what we saw etc. and a report for your favourite animals, we took photos to publish them on your blog.

The Kangaroo was the first animal I saw, so cute when they were running around and some of them were hopping too.

Some people got scared when they saw them very close but the others enjoyed feeding them and took ohotos, and one of our classmates put her foot on their claws but she didn't realise that a Kangaroo was behind her.

Featherdale full of native animals such as Koalas,Kangaroo,Emu etc.

I took photos for a Koala while she was holding her 2 babies and standing on the top of a tree .

They always sleep nearly the hole days and they are lazy. I also saw many kinds of birds, some of them are caged and the others are free.

The Penguins were swimming , a Pelican "whose bill can hold more than his belly", and also 2 Kangaroos were kissing each other, when i held my camera to take a photo of them they finished their love session.

A Peacok was standing but he didn't open her wonderful feathers with their special coulours.

There were many kinds of snakes, each kind has a decorated place, rocks, sands and light. The Lizard was lying in the sun, I woke up the Dingo and I took a photo of it.

Turtles are reptitles which live in the water their bodies covered with shell to protect them.

A Kookabura which has a very noisy sounds was singing his heart out. The Sun Concure is a beautiful parrot which is naturally, brightly coloured, actually it's an amazing and fabulous bird with their amazing sounds.

When you saw the Tawny Frogmouth, you think that he's not a bird, he looks like a branch of the tree that he stoods on because he has the same colour as the tree.

After 3 hours we decided to have a rest and ate some foods so we bought drink with potato chips and we sat together with our classmates. We enjoyed that lunch and we took a lot of photos with our teachers and classmates. Then we visited the Souvenir shop, which is a bit expensive but they have special things related to those animals.

After that we returned to the Bus to come back to TAFE.

We enjoyed that excursion we learnt a lot of new information about Aussie animals.

Koalas are nocturnal so they are more active during the night. They live and sleep in the Eucalyptus trees and sleep between 18 to 20 hours per day which is nearly the hole day.
Koala has big ears and nose. The nose of Koala is because it has a very high sense of smell to feel the difference between edible gum leaves and poisonous leaves.
