“I think we have just decided that every year we will bring a Ballenas group to Hooksum so just book us in around the same time each year automatically…The Ballenas kids have some great stories to tell. Darren and I just smiled stupid for quite a few days after getting back when people asked us how the trip went…” Allen Halverson, Ballenas Secondary School teacher
