Dear Narelle,

Would you be so kind as to ask your daughter to use
http://www.google.com.au
copy in ...... "Sir Henry Parkes" .........

one excellent page is:
http://www.nnsw.com.au/tenterfield/hparkes.html
"Parkes' Ministry is best remembered for his fiery and impassioned support
for the Federation of Australian Colonies, making his famous speech at the
School of Arts, Tenterfield on 24 October 1889"

http://www.nla.gov.au/guides/federation/people/parkes.html

http://www.nla.gov.au/guides/federation/about.html
There are many other references


Copy ...... "Australian Constitution" .............
into google

The best site to answer this is the official site:
http://www.aph.gov.au/senate/general/constitution/

I think all will be answered on that page

Cheers,

Tony Moore
(Balgo, Western Australia)
