Great shooting.... a welcome relief from the normal school pictures...  The
kids certainly were comfortable with your presence....Did you learn much
about using the lens?

I imagine the educational system there works a bit different then in the
US....  the kids are sent to a ( open to the public ) boarding school as the
norm?  Is this because of the extent of the farms ( stations) you have in
Australia that have limited educational capability?  Or is this what I would
call a private boarding school as an alternative to normal local schooling
in the neighborhood?

A comment about Girls Dorm 4.........  I am not sure at all what the things
are called holding up the girls' unmentionables, but here in the US, there
is/was a company making the same product for drying film in the
darkroom..... I have one and they work beautifully......
