Week 4

G'day all

I hope you all had a good week. How did you survive first the heat and then the rain? Will the weather ever settle down? I do hope that this rain will stop by Sunday so that it doesn't adversely affect the event being held all over Australia! Do you know what I'm talking about? Well, of course it's Clean Up Australia Day! What is Clean Up Australia? Who started it and why? Who can be involved? How do you become involved? What do you have to bring with you? Where do you go? What's happening in your local area? Is there a clean-up activity happening there?

To find the answers to these and other questions, I'd like you to do an internet search for Clean Up Australia. I'd like you to find at least 3 sources of (print) information/references about the event. Include one newspaper reference! Then write up a summary of the topic which answers the questions I posed earlier and any other relevant information. Remember to include the references to the sites you used.

You are to show me a draft of your work which can be handwritten or typed but NOT PLAGIARISED!!!! DO NOT COPY CHUNKS OF TEXT!

Happy blogging!
