School Disco


The previous Friday evening, as the rain fell continuously outside, Peter's school had its annual school disco. It is a fun event for the kids. The formal 'paired dancing' does not happen. There is simply a lot of jumping and shaking to the music for some while the rest simply run about in the semi darkness. This all happens under the watchful eyes of many teachers and the many parents who organised the event. There was an entry cost because the event is a fund raiser, but the music and lighting were well presented and each child was given a glow band to wear and take home afterward. For a bit of extra money LED products were available for purchase, flashing things that hang off the body in some way. It made for an impressive spectacle.
