Woohoo- finally success on cache # 3 of the morning. BudgieB's sharp eyes quickly spotted the cache & RB finally believed us that they do actually exist after her first day hunting started with two DNFs. Great little find-thanks!

TeamUs! didn't have a great 2020 (who did?) and as its days narrowed to their conclusion we decided that 2020 wouldn't get the better of us and we would achieve 100 caches before the year was up. It is turning out to be a close run thing! So one half of TeamUs! stayed home with the geobrats while the other half went out night caching for some quick finds. This was one of them. Thanks for the cache, nice and easy, exactly what we are looking for at this stage.

The log book is full.
 
Quick park and find not too many muggles. Log book full tho

14 Feb 2020: Streak Day #351/366 (1 March 2019 - 29 February 2020). Lovely to have a quick park and grab after work as the weather wasn't great but fortunately, it was just a shower when I was here as it has been heavy rain and thunderstorm few minutes ago. Thanks LouiseAnn for the cache.

Tried to find this one last week when we went to VSV to check on progress of my daughters enrollment had a look in all the wrong places. Today going to check again for the slow enrolment I eyed off the area as I walked in the entrance and knew exactly where it was. A small body adjustment had me spotting it and wondering how overcomplicated our previous search was. Miss 5 who was with me thought I was pretty clever. Many moons ago I came to this school when it was Thornbury Darebin. Sad to see the canteen is now units as I had many potato cakes with soy and vinegar from there as well as burger rings and coke. My primary school Fairfield North can be seen from GZ and the front facing the backwards due to station street being put on a different path than originally mapped out. The school is now units. The whole area used to be swap lands and my father and uncle used to play in the mud flats. TFTC

Cache #45
Traditional Cache #38
Found with MoonCake__

Went out in the hope to find 7 more before the new year to get 50 for the year. Have one phone with 30% probably not gonna make it but worth a shot....

Nice little story but just here for the cache. Nice little hide. Didn't take long and were on our way to the third of 7. TFTC

On a trip down from Queensland. Early morning stroll. To find some cache. Thanks for the hide and the information.
 
08-Dec-19
Wow! That was a great geocache we even had the owner of the cache drop by and gave us a very small hint. Thanks!
 
06-Dec-19
Took a few minutes as I went a look and then laid my hand on it. Lots of cars parked; school must be busy.

A quick find in the most logical location and the co-ordinates were spot on as well.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for this geocache experience here today.

Short stroll from home. Quick find. My girlfriend studied here years ago Smile
 
10-Aug-19
Cold and wet winter but we spotted it quickly.
 
04-Aug-19
Only second one found, took is a while to find it!
 
04-Aug-19
This was good geocache. Recommendation is to not bother looking in the bush it isn’t there and it took me a while to realise that.

Their was some dog poo too don’t bother with that.
 
03-Aug-19
Clever!!

Our third find and maybe we are finally starting to get the hang of this. Not too hard now that we are learning some cool tricks, thanks to the helpful fairy who dropped some hints as she passed by!

After pushing my son to finish an assignment over the Easter break, I found myself here bright and early to hand deliver it for him. What better way to kill some time. Thanks for the hide
 
11-Apr-19
A quick find while riding through the area and grabbing some caches. Plenty of football being played nearby, but no one to worry about cachers. TFTC
 
06-Mar-19
Found it but only after a long 10 mins of over thinking this one. It is very easy but as there are many possibilities you tend to look in other areas first which causes frustration not finding it.
It was Connect with Distance Day today so we introduced our teacher and classmates to Geocaching. Couldn’t believe this one was right at the school.
Lovely little trinkets in there. One of the kids loved the nut face and another loved the glass emoji square.
Thank you LouiseAnn for the cache.
 
06-Mar-19
Just moved to the area, and this is my first find! Thank you
 
02-Mar-19
Great fun, tough to find

Here for a seminar at Distance Education Centre Victoria, which has changed its name this year to Virtual School Victoria. Took me a while to find the cache as no description of cache or hint provided but some subtle clues by other geocachers gave me better idea of what (not where) to look for. TFTC.
 
15-Feb-19
DECV a lifesaver for so many rural kids - imagined it existed in the clouds somewhere! TFTC
 
13-Feb-19
Didn’t find it the first time, but kicked myself when I found it when I came back. Thanks Smile
 
09-Jan-19
Yay
 
22-Dec-18
Saturday morning the Sun is shining and i thought it would be a perfect morning to find some more local caches. I was walking along the Darebin creek and saw this was close by so thought I'd grab it whilst i was out. Was a fairly quick and easy find, log book has been signed and returned.

Thanks for the hide
