A valentines day surprise
This week the Terrific Tuesday team shared the St Valentines Day Spirit with a visit from Chelsea Pitman from the QLD Firebirds Netball Team. Chelsea is in pre-season training with the season starting again on 1 April where the Firebirds are hoping to be back-to-back premiers after winning the 2011 season.
There were many smiles as children had their photos taken as a keepsake of their special visitor as well as autographed posters and player information cards. One child even challenged Chelsea to a game of Connect Four and was very kind and let her win.
Check us out on the QLD Firebirds website also http://www.firebirds.net.au.
We wish the team all the best for the pre-season training and 2012 season.
Our thanks go to Chelsea and Christine for making these priceless moments with the children possible.

Prizes for children whose drawings were chosen for our 2012 Calendar have been delivered to addresses as far afield as Stanley and Bridge of Earn.

Gc united kick start the new year with a visit to radio lollipop gold coast
Gold Coast United players Mitch Beven, Neko Vujevich and Chris Harold kicked off the New Year with a visit to Radio Lollipop Gold Coast on Monday 9th January. It was their first time visiting the ward with the Gold Coast United Football Clubs monthly visit arrangement with Radio Lollipop.
The boys had a great time on the ward chatting to the kids, playing table tennis, foosball and visiting children who were bedridden. One young boy, Josh, was a big soccer fan so he was delighted in getting a signed GC United poster and photos with the players. Little Caitlin was also very happy to meet the players and get photos with them for her dad who was a big fan of the club.
The boys thoroughly enjoyed the visit and said they felt like they were kids again sitting down playing games, playing table tennis and even doing some crafts and painting. They were fabulous on the wards and there were smiles all round as they chatted to the kids. Thank you so much to Gold Coast United for being so committed to putting smiles on childrens faces at Gold Coast Hospital. We look forward to next months visit.
