Emily brought some amazing Australian items in to show the class.
She told us 'The kangaroo is a family heirloom and it came from Australia.'
Tim Tams are from Australia and they taste like cake but they are not. I tried them with my cousin and they were really nice and I really liked them. I got them from Australia from one of my dads friends.
I got this boomerang in Australia. I went there in Primary 3 after Christmas to visit my family. The boomerang sometimes comes back to you and they are very sore when they hit you!
It was very hot and I saw my aunts dog called Cuba.
