Yesterday I spent the day watching the Central Australian Eistedford. It is now in its 38th year, run by volunteers many of whom have been a driving force for years so that it is able to happen in a most professional manner. It was a day for the primary schools, and I was thrilled to watch these youngsters take this opportunity available to them to gain skills and most importantly confidence. I was really pleased that 3 of my grandchildren were taking part. It was memorable that two of them were the sole competitors in a section, so it was two cousins competing against each other which was a good, valuable experience.
