              * The stars and moon clearly at night.

              * The daily cycle of :-

                                               *  The dawn ‘ light show ‘ as  sunrise

                                                   colours  the underside of the clouds.

                                                   And birdsong welcomes the dawn.

          *  The sun’s slow, purposeful day long

             movement, bringing changing light and 

             colour to the landscape and how birds    

             and animals respond.

* The beauty and movement  of         

   changing cloud and sky colours.

* The evening ‘ light show ‘as the   

    setting sun colours clouds in the    

    western sky. With birds and animals  

    preparing to rest as the  cool and quiet   

    of evening comes. And myriads of   

    insects are seen in the lowering western   

    light.

                     Balancing work and play

                                  You learn how parents balance work, relaxation

                                and play, making time for each other and  the  

                                children.

                                   You enjoy ‘ special ‘ family events, picnic

                                 outings to beaches, national parks, holidays etc.,

                                 some with relatives and family friends.

                                   You are taught the value of sport for re creation,

                                 exercise, enjoyment and developing team skills.   

                         Off course note.

                                   Parents explain that  much sport, especially as

                                seen  in the  media,  has become a money making

                                business bringing out the worst of competitiveness

                                and combativeness in people. Which leaves no

                                room  for loving  your neighbour or re creation.
