rosies cup - everyone learns a different way

Everyone learns in a different way. What takes one minutes might take another a year, but its learned anyway.

Thanks Rosie for this message.

I just remembered that When I first went to study at Victoria University in Footscray, you were in my tummy.

This cup was planted at Victora University, Nicholson Street Campus where any of your friends study music and where I have been attending the Public Pedagogies Institute Annual Conference for the last three days.

Included is a wonderful Photo of me and Sasha. I met Sasha at Metrowest and she was very pleased because she had found Alejandra's cup a few days earlier and could tell me about it. We were both wearing red - great minds think alike!

This cup is a sweet little porcelain one with cobalt oxide, planted at the Nicholson street campus of Victoria University

Jack's cup was placed on the Nicholson Street campus of Victoria University

School is like a castle that protects you, teachers are like the warrior that train you, we are the soldiers to protect yourself in the future – Jack.

Thankyou Jack from Williamstown Highschool,

don't let your studies interfere with your education - an archival cup!

This is one of Kim Burrell's archival finds,
 and here it is placed in the area where I think the old pottery school was.
There is a tree her which looks pretty old given the width of the trunk.

“Don’t let your studies interfere with your education.” O.H. Bayliss, Footscray Technical School teacher in Blue & Gold [magazine of Footscray Technical School], 1954

Placement 7 - The Nicholson street Campus library - learning is bliss!

Well all I can say is that this is a sweet cup.

I walked the famous Nicholson street from one campus to another,
The cute cup posed with blue books and then sat at a table.

This cup's message is from Liz, who is just finishing her Masters at Victoria University and considering doing a PhD next.

What a wonderful library,

And then I went for a wander . . . . 

I found another baby Guerrilla work

follow this link to see her other works including the Gorgeous one on the Ballarat Road facade of VU.

http://babyguerrilla.com/

and another Baby Guerrilla Work!

And then some handstands by Larissa MacFarlane

http://larissamacfarlane.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/a-ritual-of-handstands.html

And one of the wonderful AUSSIE posters by Peter Drew

(which I love because my children also have a dash of subcontinental ethnicity but are Aussie, 

thanks Peter Drew)

http://www.peterdrewarts.com/

And some more, I think this was a project by locals. (I'll look it up later for you)

And then on the way back through the mall I met the bird lady who feeds the birds each day.

And then way down near Edgewater I spy a wonderful sunlit landscape on this cold and windy day.
