Having family gatherings and barbecues‚ having the opportunity to vote which makes us a democratic country. The thing about Australia is you don’t have to be born an Aussie to consider yourself

What literacy means for me and the impact that has on my life. For me literacy is very important and has a really strong impact in my life. When I was a kid I remember my father always telling me “the more you know the better it is”. I never really understood what he meant nor did I pay that much attention.
