This is Crime Television, your local station.
Get ready for the game of skill and strategies. Two top teams fight it out for School of the
Week on Blockbusters. And now the host of Blockbusters, Michael Holt.
G'day everyone. Hello to you. Welcome to Blockbusters. Doesn't time fly? On this day in 1987, five
years ago was the stock market crash. Who would have thought it was so recent? If you don't know
about the stock market crash, it happened in Falls Creek. A runaway snowmobile got out of control
and ran through a secondhand ski equipment shop. Stock market crash. OK, we have two schools with
us. Rosewood and Rochedale will follow all week. Gary, will you tell us please a bit about our two
schools? Rochedale State School officially opened in April 1931 with 27 students. Today's population
number is over 500 and they enjoy a well-balanced curriculum that includes Chinese and French as
their languages other than English and a supportive learning assistance program. Rosewood
Primary was opened in 1875 and the initial small enrolment has grown to today's figure of 321.
Recent competitors in the tournament of mines, the school has also had success with its cricket,
soccer, softball and netball teams. And they are the schools that we will follow this week as we
keep giving five points for every correct answer. The scores keep getting higher until Friday we
have a new winner. Now let's find out who the winners are playing today. They are our teams for
Rosewood, Gregory and Amanda. Welcome to the show both of you. Hi Greg, how are you?
Alright. That's good. Greg, what would you like to have as a magic ability if you could?
To know everything in the world. Absolutely everything in the world? Yep. What would the
advantage be in knowing that? I could help people like with their economy and start civil wars.
Yeah? Would it mean though that you no longer wanted to sort of seek knowledge because you already had it?
Yeah, but I could just, I'd become famous because I'd know everything.
