Ali Week 6
Published October 19, 2014 | By Greg & Sophie
Mon 13th Oct. Back at the primary school I continued with the second coat of paint to the staff toilet walls leaving only the edges for the following day. The computer lessons for the staff are also progressing well, this week I showed them how to insert pictures and shapes and how to change the format and sizing.
Tues 14th Oct. I finished the edges around the staff toilets, continued with the computer lessons, another exercise to test how much they are retaining! and took the boys swimming in the afternoon.
Weds 15th Oct. Glossing today! Testing my own skills at the art of painting I had to paint a free-hand skirting board around the staff toilets and a pretty good job I made of it!! I also painted the door frames, pipe work and window completing the staff toilets ready for Charles to tile the cubicle floors.
Thurs 16th Oct. Over at One Central I painted 2 more chalkboards, 1 in the babies room, the other in the over 6’s, only in this room I was rather ambitious with the size and ran out of paint so I created a fireplace around the area unpainted until we can source more paint! I also used the remaining green paint in the 4-5 year olds room to paint more beams around the room and door frame.
Fri 17th Oct. After a week of painting a change of direction. I learnt how to clean carpets African style! None of this Hoover malarkey I’m used too
