Environmental Collapse

(Getting ready for the day)

Dad: RJ! Head upstairs, get out of your pajamas and get your clothes on, please!

(5 minutes later)

Dad: RJ! Time to get dressed… We’ve got to go out in a few minutes! Go! throw some shorts and a t-shirt on!

(5 minutes later)

Dad: RJ! You’re still in your pajamas? Upstairs and get dressed, now!

RJ: (sullenly walks upstairs) Oooo-kay.

(5 minutes later, Dad heads upstairs to help RJ finish getting ready, only to discover him spread-eagled on his bedroom floor in only his underwear.)

Dad: RJ! We’ve got to go! Why are you lying on the floor? What happened???

RJ: An emergency! Catastrophic climate change! I wasn’t ready!

Not only our island nation that is sinking

News Update: Trees planted, environment restored!

On Tuesday, Mum and LR went on an excursion with the Year 2 class to plant and restore a local area.

We planted spinifex, knotted club rush, coastal daisy, fan flower, snake vine, and cotton heads. All these plants would once have grown on the site before rabbits and people destroyed the local vegetation.
