A Cacophony of Kids
As we walked into the Kariong Public School hall for our daughter's end-of-year presentation I remarked to my wife that there was a gaggle of girls present. We were backing up after our son's equivalent event the previous night.
Soon the noise became even louder and more shrill as the hall filled. I had to be fair now and acknowledge that the boys were contributing to the decibels. So I changed my alliterative assessment to a cacophony of Kariong kids.
Anyway, eventually the rabble was brought to order and all and sundry enjoyed the presentation of various awards.
But the biggest prize for our two kids was being allowed a detour on the way home to see the various Christmas lights and search for the least tasteful in our neck of the woods. Believe me, there was plenty of competition!
