I must say... Time has certainly gotten away from me! Our two week holiday is practically over (4 days left) and we've been busy removing our carpet, sanding back the floor boards, staining and sealing them! All because I found out I have a severe dust mite allergy!
We head into a HUGE 11 week term too! On a positive note, this is the LAST 11 week term EVER! Qld is now making all four school terms 10 weeks long which is excellent for us and the students.
One picture just to show the hard work and effort over 5 days.

Wow your floors look amazing!!
ReplyDeleteWe tried doing that to ours when we moved in.
They turned out ok but not great and we eventually went back to carpet:(

Thanks Heather! It took a whole day to pull up carpet and re-nail 200+ nails. Another to punch holes and fill them. A day to sand the floors and a final day to stain and seal floors! Plus today to clean clean clean everything! arghhhhh
DeleteWell worth it in the end :) Thanks
I am your newest follower thanks yo Farley:) Your floor looks amazing! I am debating on doing something similar, but with my condo being a fairly new building, I know that there is not anything underneath the carpet. Are you at a year round school? I hope that you enjoy the rest of your break!

Thanks Beach Teacher! I am also your newest too.
Deleteahhh that's a shame not having floor boards, but I must say, paying to have them put in (real timber or bamboo style laminate etc) would be a MILLION times easier than it was doing ours! lol
What is an all year round school? In Australia we begin the school year in early Feb and have a 10 week term.
We break around April for 2 weeks then begin another 10 week term.
We break again late June early July for 2 weeks then begin a third 10 week term.
We break again in September for 2 weeks then begin another 10 week term. Finish around December 10 - late January are the main holidays!
