The People: Meadow Flat

Jan drove ahead of me four or five kilometres at a time and then parked against the oncoming traffic so drivers knew to keep a lookout for me. On one trip she came across Meadow Flat P.S. and decided to head in and introduce herself. I was coming through at about lunch time so the Principal, Michael Wood, and the staff brought all the students out to say hello. I got to meet all of them and shake their hands as I passed. I had completed quite a few hours of my second day by this time and being welcomed by the thirty-five students and speaking with them put a spring in my step. The support of the school at such short notice was greatly appreciated.
