Our Town: Derby (WA)

[@michaelhayden725]

An incredible production. When I first lived in Port Hedland and then Kununurra in 1970's there were no state high schools north of Port Hedland - children finished primary school and then went to private/church run boarding schools in Perth or the State operated boarding school in Geraldton. So great that these children can now complete their education in the home town.

Excellent presentation. Informative and enjoyable. I live in the United States and have long been interested in Australia. From Adelaide to Darwin, from Brisbane to Perth, from Cairns to Broome and Derby and Kununurra, what a varied and fascinating country! Thank you very much for this well composed video and commentary. I dearly hope to be able to visit and spend some time in your country.

Great job, kids! 👏 As an American, I'm interested in Western Australia and found your video very enjoyable.
