Interesting things that the girls have learned today:

- One of the names that was considered for Canberra was 'Shakespeare' … they also considered 'Sydmeladbrisperho', but eventually decided on the local Aboriginal name for the area, 'Canberra' which means 'Meeting place'.
- That looking forward when cycling is always a good idea!
- That a double majority is needed to change the constitution
- Who's Mums and Dads are enrolled to vote (and older brothers and sisters, mothers-in-laws …)
- That you don't have to be Michael Jackson to look cool wearing white gloves.
- Televisions and mirrors create amazing holographic effects
- In Australia on walk ways (just like on the roads) it's a good idea to keep left.
- That you're never too old to take a Teddy on camp (according to Miss P!) but for all the Teddy's at home, you are missed.
