A Queensland University of Technology Institute of Health study surveyed 500 households across Brisbane in 2009 and released the findings this week.

Being Happy
"The way to happiness: keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little, give much. Scatter sunshine. Forget self, think of others. Try this for a week and you'll be surprised."
Norman Vincent Peale, Author.
"Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be."
Abraham Lincoln, US President.

This Little Pig went to the Library...
...because this little pig didn't want to stay home...
This little pig wanted to make something,
and this little pig wanted a song...
And this little pig said "Read it again!"
All the way home!
Trot into the Busselton Library at 10am on Wednesday 13th April for another free storytime session... this time it's all about PIGS!
Storytime sessions at the Busselton Library are aimed at children 3 to 5 years of age, and no bookings are required - contact the Busselton Library on (08) 9754 1588 for more info.
