In Australia the academic year ends Nov/Dec. and this week Madeleine finished Grade 12 - she's having a Gap Year in 2008. Tuesday night saw us at the Brisbane Girls' Grammar Valedictory dinner. Not a bad thrash.
On Wednesday it was the turn of Jake. The Brisbane Boys' Grammar Speech Night was held at the Convention Centre. Exactly the same format as my school prize-giving nights 40 years ago! i.e. a bit long winded and boring. However, Jake got an Academic Prize for being in the top 10% of the year.
