Waltzing Matilda – It’s all about observation
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang and he watched and he waited till
his billy boiled
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
And he sang and he watched and he waited till
his billy boiled,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".

Knowledge is Power
The Knowledge Economy
Pass on what you know
Find a way to store and distribute what you

Make your medium cheap and accessible
Aim to help others understand

Is Big Simple or Complex ?
Our planet formed about 4.5 billion years ago
Our planet orbits a single star, the sun
Our sun is one of 300 billion stars in our galaxy,
the Milky Way
Our galaxy is about 100,000 light years across
and 1,000 light years thick

Let’s have a quick look and a play...........
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang and he watched and he waited till
his billy boiled
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
And he sang and he watched and he waited till
his billy boiled,
"You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me".
And that Swagman ? It’s all about observation
