News From Brisbane

My niece Anj's daughter (9), "did very well in the national testing. She achieved well above average on Spelling, grammar and math, and average for writing. A great effort considering she is the youngest in her year. She recently received an A for her report on John Mc Douall Stewart. He was the first person to cross Australia - South to North.

Her son (5), "had his first session of have a go cricket. It is on every Saturday until march next year. He’s really very good for his age. He can bowl with a straight arm and get the ball to go in a fairly accurate direction. And his batting is good too although he seems to only have one shot at this stage, he likes to hit any ball to the leg side."
