“My hero is my family and my happiest moment was when I raised $2000 singing church songs. My greatest achievement was when I was being picked captain of Macquarie House in primary school and my best mate is Brooke”. - Lima

“My childhood hero is my dad. He was always there for me - even when I was scared and stuff. And my happiest memory was when I first met every single one of my best friends and when our school won a competition for the third time in a row. And my greatest achievement was performing in front of hundreds of people at Bankstown Director’s Choice”. - Pamlyn

“My first pet was a bird, cockatoo, yellow and white. It was a very nice bird and clean but one day it crossed the road and got run over by a car. His name was Birdy. My favourite photo is a picture of my baby sister who is three. It was taken on her birthday. She’s in her pram with her red hat”. - Anna
