1° “William, Emma, I’d like to tell you the story of my ancestor Elizabeth. I bet you didn’t know that she arrived in Australia as a prisoner! Let’s sit down and I’ll tell you about her.2° “My ancestor Elizabeth lived in London in 1835. At that time, lots of Londoners were poor and starving. One day, as she was walking past a bakery, Elizabeth couldn’t resist stealing a piece of bread. Unfortunately, a bobby caught her red-handed. She tried to escape but she couldn’t and was sent to court for that crime.
WB p61
3°“Elizabeth was sentenced to deportation: she was sent to Aus-tralia just because of a stolen piece of bread! During the voyage, she met Jane and Oliver who were also deportees. Jane was considered to be a “bad woman” because she was a mother but she wasn’t married and her baby was taken away from her, of course! Oliver was so poor that he had no choice but to beg in the streets. Rich people didn’t like beggars, that’s why he was sent away too. Neither Elizabeth nor Oliver nor Jane knew anything about Australia. They couldn’t imagine it was that far away. In fact, it was a 250-day journey.
WB p61
4° “When they arrived at Sydney Cove, they were washed and inspected by some officers. Their names and religion were registered. Then, the men and women were separated and sorted out according to their skills. Most of the men helped build the Great North Road and the women were sent to the Parramatta female factory to make clothes with wool and linen.
