I have been asked to judge the secondary school entries in the Dorothea Mackellar Poetry Awards this year.

These awards are the largest of their kind in Australia. Last year they received approximately 10,000 entries from 655 schools!

I attended the launch at Parliament House on Tuesday, and have placed a report on my website, here:

Well done Stephen. I remember the entries last year were pretty amazing. That should keep you busy for quite some time.
