00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Yesterday I read out a bit of an update on

00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: two young girls based in Catherine who are absolutely kicking

3
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,479
Speaker 1: goals when it comes to Taekwondor now twins Ella and

26
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 2: inspiring other students now too.

27
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 1: I bet they are. Have you seen the numbers grow

28
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: now at Temple's taekwond Whole Academy as a result of,

29

00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 2: there ninjas seven year olds.

34
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: Oh that's so good. You must be really happy, you know,

35
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: to see all these kids in Catherine getting involved.

36
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: Oh it's great to see the smile on the faces. And

37
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 2: they're walking away smiling and jumping around. At home as well,

38
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: the parents tell me.

39
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: I bet they are. My kids get a bit excited

40
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: after they've been to any kind of contact sports and

41
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: start trying to wrestle each other though, Darryl, yes, that's

42
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: what happens.

43
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 2: So we also teach discipline and make sure the kids

44
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: say please and thank you at home and ask them

45
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 2: they have them the dishes and just just general general

00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: respect as well.

47
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: That's such a good good thing to do. Now, tell

00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: in terms of getting the kids to these to these competitions,

134
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: particularly out of Catherine. Do you do some fundraising in that?

135
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, we do fundraising. We sell meat raffle tickets at

136

140
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: Oh good on you is do you guys have a

141
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: Facebook page if there is anybody listening this morning that

142
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: maybe does want to help out in some way.

143
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 2: Yeh, Temple's Typhono Academy is my Facebook page. But yeah,

144
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: we'll look for it's sponsors and we're just looking to

145
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 2: support the community and get the kids off the streets

146
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: and something to do and down there's competitions given a

147
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 2: lot of self confidence.

148
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: I love it, mate. I love seeing young people do

149
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: good stuff. And I know that sometimes you know, when

150
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: you grow up in a smaller town like Catherine. I

151
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: grew up in Mount Isa, the best way to stay

152
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: out of trouble and to be on the right track

153
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: really is to be involved in sport. So I think

154
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: it's wonderful what you're doing with all the kids in Catherine.

155
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, Katie. I'm just so proud of the

156
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 2: twins as well. Like we've got so many young students now.

157
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 2: They're inspired by the twins. They want to be around them.

158
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 2: They one take their photos with them. It's a great

159
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: to see.

160
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: Oh so good, good on them. A big congratulations to
