Great News

Great news the book is getting closer to completion, with the proof approved and printing in process. It looks like we will have a special advanced release prior to the launch, in aid of the Nurse of the year entrant Joyce Buckley. This is set to be held at the St Vincents Hospital Daffodil Day Breakfast on the 28th of August, 2009.

Tentative dates for the official launch are being chosen. It will probably be mid September at the Toowoomba City Library. This will help focus on the up and coming school holiday activities for the children. Online order forms will be available soon, along with outlet purchase details.
