A very creative group of the finest high school drama students balanced, juggled and hooped along with us. Today was the day Lazuli was (mistakenly) recognised as someone famous – perhaps from Play School.

A lovely town, nestled in the forested hills. The staff and students were equally as lovely. Everyone was like fluffy clouds, happy and light. Definitly the cutest and cosiest school we have ever visited. We met interesting individuals with a remarkable selection of names.

St Mary's Primary, Casino


3 days of workshops, and 2 extra helpers from the local circus community - Sue and Elke. It was an exciting and colouful 3 days. The students at this school were keen diaboloists, and excellent balancers. Each class put on a great show. The students were all enthusiastic and very diligent with their practising.

Tabulum Public School, and Drake Public School

A misty morning, surrounded by clouds, was brightened by smiling faces at Tabulum. We'd stayed in Miss Bindy's bus, and it was a short drive to school, Tee even walked home afterwards! Quite a novelty. On the way home there was more juggling practice with some rocks and keen students. We had a fantastic day, with the staff and students. We even had one of the teachers up to help us out with our workshop! Great questions after the show, and helpful hands at the end of the day who packed our bus, as seen here. Thanks Tabulum and Drake.

Tenterfield High School
May 7 2007

We spent the day accompanied by the schools up and coming stars, who by the end of the day could've run the workshop themselves. We all enjoyed performing for this group of expressive, creative young people, who laughed with, and at us. The workshops were great, with an act that looked a lot like our hula hoop number.....

Bourke is on the beautiful Darling River, and between two days of shows and workshops, we enjoyed walking and sitting by the river. We saw black ducks, a water rat, eagles, parrots and kangaroos. Students in Bourke were very friendly, they enjoyed our show and learned a lot of circus skills in the workshops.

Students were glad to see us again, and remembered us from 2004 when we performed there last. Miss Draper stole the show when she volunteered in the unicycle scene. We loved performing against the beautiful hand-painted backdrop. Here are some beautiful drawings by the students.

We did a show for the whole school, and the preschool kids came over as well. We thought, “Wow, Wilcannia what a nice place”. The students and teachers were all lovely.

Willyama Highschool
Tuesday 7th November 06

We started this great day with a staff inservice with two very lovely teachers who enjoyed having time without students to play and learn circus for themselves.

We performed our show with all of year 7 and drama students from years 7, 8, 9 and 10. We’re not sure who was funnier, them or us! They then had a drama student circus skills workshop where they all had a turn at juggling, poi, unicycle, hula-hoops, and we finished with a show off-session. Post your comments or questions here!
