    Library and Pylon

    What is this photo? Write your guess in comments
    Hi all. Today we are having a bit less time in the computer room, so we won't be doing so much work.

    1. To help you with your Library portfolio, listen to Patricia: St George College Librarian in Sydney's People Podcast and answer the questions in your blog.

    2. Forum : Is it OK to smack a child? Read the introduction to this week's topic and write your opinion. Marion's students are also going to take part in the forum, so make sure you respond to their comments.
    3. Check the Sydney Harbout BridgePylon Lookout website to prepare our visit. When is it open? How much is it? How can we get there? What can you find out about its history? What do Stuart Little, Di Smith and Cookie Monster have in common? Write about it in your blog.

    4. Do you know the meanings of these Aussie words and expressions?

    dunny, tucker, Waltzing Matilda,g'day, off one's face

    You can find out in Aussie Slang.

    5. Most of you have to catch up with your blog work. You can do it on Thursday or on the weekend:
    • write a post about your first impressions of Australia
    • write your opinion about Australian Story: Room at the Top.

    Hi all,
    To me it looks like a leg with varicose veins.
