Our Bloke – Jamie Austin

26 September, 2018 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

Jamie Austin

How long have you lived in or around Canowindra and what do you like about living here? I’ve lived in Canowindra my whole life, 17 years. I like how peaceful it is here and that you can walk down the main street and talk to everyone.

Where do you go to school and what do you enjoy most about it? I’m a Year 11 student at Canowindra High School. The best thing about school is spending time with my friends.

What are you good at? I really enjoy welding and metal work, as well as most sports.

What is your pet hate? Being made late by my family – we’re famous for it!

If you could have a super power what would it be and why? To be able to breath underwater because I have a fear of drowning in a submerged vessel!

Tell us about your best holiday ever? My family and I travelled around Australia for 3 months. It was the best holiday I’ve had because I was able to experience and see many new things.

Tell us an interesting fact about yourself?
When I was little, I used to think that Roy White, our bus driver, kept a tally of all the good and bad things we did, just like Santa!
