back to top Jess' Holiday Adventures
Our wonderful nurse Jess recently returned from holidaying to Europe where she had immense fun and experienced much cultural diversity. Travelling with a friend from boarding school days, she hopped around 10 countries for 4 weeks. Her favourites included Spain, France, Germany and Switzerland. Jess said " I love tapas and the nightlife in Barcelona, Paris is romantic and colourful and Switzerland gave me my first glimpses of snow". Jess is pictured here in St Goar, Rhine Valley, Germany home to the Teddy Bear, world's largest free hanging cuckoo clock and world's largest beerstein collection!!

back to top Missy Goes to School
Missy our clinic cat and Dr Aaron recently visited the children at Stepping Stones Kindy in East Fremantle as part of their 'People who work in our community' week. The kids had lots of fun learning all about pet care and dressing up for surgery. Missy was very patient while everyone had a turn at giving her a pat. She came back a little frazzled from all the attention and spent a good few hours recovering in the kitchen cupboard.
