I devote this diary to two particular issues I feel strongly about this week. They are in connection to the positive feedbacks that have transpired from the fine effort by the country to host its biggest ever international meeting since 1980. I end with a brief word on the safety of school children on the road, following the tragic death of that schoolgirl at Teouma on the eve of the international meeting.

Most two year olds
start to calm down as they approach three and learn new skills. They start to talk a lot and verbally express their needs, have lots of energy and enjoy noise. They develop definite likes and dislikes with food, clothes, toys and just about everything else! Some two year olds can get a bit bossy or jealous and many don’t like change
You can help build their self esteem by:

• Giving lots of praise when they do something well.
• Listening to what they are saying and trying to answer all their questions (there will be many).

The Koncerners music group from Wan Smolbag Youth Centre visited New Caledonia last month for their first overseas tour.

They performed twice at the Mata Pila Tegne Festival in Touho (Tuo), and once at a local festival in Puébo, both situated in the Northern Province of New Caledonia. 
The group were warmly welcomed into the community by the local Kanaky people and other festival performers from around New Caledonia as well as from Reunion.  The most challenging, albeit somewhat entertaining, part of the experience was trying to speak French with the locals. 

Acting Prime Minister and Minister of Trade Ham Lini launched the Centenary of the Seventh Day Adventist Church yesterday afternoon in front of approximately two thousand members.
He thanked the church leaders for the church contributions through its education and health sectors for producing an increasing number of professionals to bolster the workforce in both the public sector as well as the private sector.

The banana boat that capsized in rough seas between Emae and Matasso last week was found floating upside down near Tongoa but without its eight passengers.
The banana boat was brought back to Port Vila on the RVS Tukoro.
The RVS Tukoro and the search and rescue party on board was alerted by a surveillance aircraft that spotted the banana boat just off Tongoa Island miles away from where it was capsized-near Matasso.
The RVS Tukoro went to the spot and found the banana boat floating upside down but without any sign of the eight passengers who held on to the boat on the day it capsized.
