Guests Kerry and Leela

Theme  leadership

Bard  Gail read a Press article about Celia Lashlie. Such a

 wonderful woman, she will be sadly missed.

1st speaker  Angara with "Sleep" told us if we live till age

90 we will spend 32 years sleeping! Wow, what a waste.

Angara gave a us a long list of how many hours of sleep

we need at each stage of our journey through life.

 She reminded us that lack of sleep causes poor memory

power and even sickness. Next speech, tell us how to get

to sleep when we can't will you?. Well done Angara.

 

2nd speaker  Richard with "We are not alone" explored

the likelihood that there are other life forms in the

universe. Richard showed us several "extremophiles" -

animals that can adapt to extremes of heat/cold/acidity

 or even no oxygen or radio-active areas. We particularly

loved 'gummybear' only a millemetre long called

tardigrade picture

  Tardigrade which can withstand temperatures from 

 -200°C up to  151°C, lack of water and oxygen,

“boiling alcohol,” (who thought of that?) and a
  thousand times the radiation we can take.

Great speech Richard.

3rd speaker  Julie with "Scholastic Terrorism"

took us back to schooldays and bullying.She

gave evidence that bullying appears to begin

between pre-school and 8yrs old (90% of

teachers thought so). Julie suggested we use

volunteers in the schoolyard as Senior

Monitors to supervise breaktimes and stop

bullying in its tracks. Julie outlined the skills

that male monitors could bring boys and

female  monitors to girls. The speech was

well received.

 Tabletopics  Aman did a great job with his

role and Mark s, Kerry, Jitendra and Leela

all spoke well.

Great evening folks. See u next week!
