Two children playing cricket

  Cricket is a game that can be started at an early age and can go far into a mature age. Can be a good childhood playful activity, or even a competitive sport with equal involvement of boys and girls, women and men.

Training at the Motor Transport School for the Women's Army girls, Brisbane, September 1942

  MOTOR TRANSPORT SCHOOL,.— Climbing a steep trackless hill may be all in a day's work for an Army motorcyclist. This Institution at an Army Motor Transport School shows students how to manage a bucking cycle In such a climb. Universal carriers and motorcyclists assembling for a training exercise in Queensland.

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  The AWAS played an important role in intelligence, signals, ciphers, electrical and mechanical training units, heavy convoy work, anti-aircraft and coastal artillery, gun sights and searchlights. They were cooks, clerks, orderlies, canteen workers, provosts, butchers, instrument repairers, and transport and ambulance drivers. When peace was declared in 1945, these women returned full of confidence with plans for their futures, but they were not wanted in the workforce. Many were required to care for returning servicemen in the confines of the home. Some of their stories were horrendous; coping with a traumatised, sometimes violent partner, without good advice or support. Source: tracesmagazine.com.au/2016/06/women-in-world-war-ii-the-a...
