Anne recalls overcrowded classrooms, ink-stained blotting paper, peculiar school rules and the entertainment available outside the classroom window. A move to Queanbeyan finally promises something different. Join Anne as she negotiates Australian school life and discovers that growing up can be an education in itself.
