Raising I.T. Experts

In Focus

'Raising IT Experts'


What happened to backyard frolicking, the BMX bandit, the friendly neighborhood street cricket game and screaming like an old fish wife out the door - “time for dinner!”?  It seems raising little people has somehow surpassed our primal natures and harshly subjected us to the need for an IT Degree to communicate with them.

When your child informs you the need for an Ipad, Ipod, Iphone and everything else that starts with “I”, has become like air,  it’s time to review the costs!  A must have to survive in the world of social pressures and certainly in keeping your child from ticking off the Anti Social Nerd box, your only response may be - “there’s no “I” in team, you can share mine!”

We'll miss the days of our kids screaming out in the night that they are sick, expect a text from here on in.  Our school newsletters are now fraught with ‘please ask your child to keep their phones turned off during school hours’.   They’re facebooking, twittering and blogging their way to world domination.  We don’t get marketing surveys spamming our inbox anymore (ok that’s good), but a little disturbing that global marketing companies now care what a 12 year old thinks!

Glass half full, there are some really cool advantages.  Parking in the shopping centre has now become less of a navigational nightmare.  Yes those Alzheimer moments are a thing of the past as your little genius simply unleashes an ‘App’  they have downloaded on your phone, ‘Find My Car’ and  pinpoints your vehicle on level 3, Green Isle, Bay 37.  Wow, technological breadcrumbs!

If you’ve ever wanted to spell the word ‘HEPATICO­CHOLANGIO­CHOLECYST­ENTERO­STOMIES’ (meaning - a surgical creation of a connection between the gall bladder and a hepatic duct and between the intestine and the gall bladder), oh come on, you might - have no fear, your IT prodigy will have soon Googled it and whipped it down in front of you before you can explain what it means.  If you’ve ever had the armpit sweating experience of assisting a child with Grade 6 homework, you will soon come to realise that Google is your friend too.

So parents, while the phrases ‘get a job’ and ‘drive yourself’ or even ‘make your own dinner’ guarantees you a solid rabbit in the headlight stare from your little IT experts, we still know more than them, for now.

News News News.....

Verging News

Greetings Verge Fans!

Our exciting news as promised - we have officially moved from our Morley location! 

The month has been mostly spent as 'Bob the Builder's - renovating our beautiful new studio in the heart of historic wine country, Swan Valley.  A gorgeous location for inspiration, beauty, relaxation and fresh air! 
 
Stunning Swan Valley home of the Wineries              Paint specialist!
The new studio is located at 243 Campersic Rd, Herne Hill

We have already teamed up with some local wineries and cafes who are offering our fabulous clients discount vouchers and all sorts of goodies to ensure your next visit with us guarantees an absolute adventure away from the hustle and bustle of the city!   We can’t wait for you to visit!

In between all the renovation madness, we did manage to frock up and spend ‘Melbourne Cup’ at the ‘Edgecombe Bros Winery’ with some glamorous ladies from our local business community.   Even though we didn’t win a brass razoo on the horses – it turned out to be a winning day for us after all!  We came second and third place in the Hat Stakes! 
 
 Crazy Hatted Verge Girls!

While Kate wore a ‘Light Box’ hat (bright idea) securing 2nd  place,  Megan’s purple velvet hat dubbed the ‘Mad Matter’ grabbed 3 rd !   It was an awesome day of fun!

On Tuesday the 13th November, we had a glorious day shooting at ‘Caversham House’ in Swan Valley – voted by the people of Perth as the Winner of the Best Wedding Venue for 2012!  What an honour it was for us to be selected as one of the preferred photographers for the venue.   Along with a few of our favourite local businesses – West Coast Rides, Angel Flowers, Confetti Occasions, Samantha Franklin Hair and Make Up and Vines Cakes, we all created a spectacular production of wedding themes.    Our images will be displayed throughout Caversham House and in a coffee table book to showcase their stunning venue. Check out the ‘Behind the Scenes’ below!

A special mention to our fabulously awesome work experience girls this month: Rianna and Paige.  We had so much fun and we were delighted to have you on board, learning about our exciting industry. 

November, done and dusted!  Enjoy our current Newsletter and make sure you check out our Special of the Month for a family portrait - great time to get your family photos ready to send out with the Christmas cards!

If you're not a The Edge Newsletter subscriber, you are missing out!! Email us RIGHT NOW to get on the list =D


Until the next Verging News, have an awesome month!
