    Murlpirrmarra Connection Students Shine @ West Australian Football League Indigenous Round 2013 South Fremantle Football Club Presidents Luncheon On Saturday July 6th 2013, the Murlpirrmarra Connection was most generously invited to attend and present at the South Fremantle Football Clubs Presidents Luncheon. Two of the Murlpirrmarra Connection’s year 12 students, Duran Patch and Braden Gilbert were given the great honour in tossing the coin to start the match between South Fremantle Football Club and Claremont’s League teams to mark the WAFL’s Indigenous round. Not only was the match the ABC TV’s match of the round but Braden and Duran had the great privilege to meet and get to know some of the great South Fremantle players of the past and also the present day players. A big thank you to South Fremantle’s Football Club’s CEO, Stuart Kemp, Melissa Marsh and Michelle Miller for their fabulous hospitality.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Elise and the Gold Gloop by S.B. Davies S.B. Davies. At the age of six, my daughter was a good reader for her age, but refused to start reading “proper books” with chapters and no pictures. She was bored with “Horrid Henry” and fairies saving a rainbow yet once more and insisted that she was old enough to read proper books, but every one she tried was “too difficult”. It wasn’t she couldn’t read them, it was the concepts and storylines; they were all designed for nine and ten year olds. There was another problem too. She wanted to read about girls, yet all the books about girls we could find were twee and dull. My daughter is happy to read about a princess, along as she is a Ninja Princess; happy to save rainbows, as long as it involves a good sword fight or perhaps a well-planned heist. After a few months of this, my lovely daughter stopped reading. We tried most of the “first chapter books” that people recommend; all met with disinterest. So I asked her exactly what she wanted in a “proper book”. After much though, she wrote down: “Dragons, princess, zombies, vampires, ghosts, but not spiders and it should be funny and scary and have fighting in it.” We couldn’t find such a book with concepts and vocabulary suitable for a six year old – so I wrote one. I had written novels before, but not a children’s book, so I had help from my daughter to find the right level.
