When I was in year two, one of Perth's big landmarks the Bell Tower was to be opened that year. On the footpaths surrounding the new building the idea was to have the handwritten names of all the children in the metropolitan primary schools in that year.
I was in the city the other day and thought I would stop by the Bell Tower and revisit my name on my primary school's tile. Each time I see it reminds me that I am part of something bigger then just my primary school class, or my school. There are all the primary school children throughout WA on these tiles and we are there forever. There is a permanent record right there that I was here.
