Our names are Courtney Rose and Rebecca Clark. We are 15 year old grade
nine students of Warrandyte high school in Australia. We felt that we
should tell you that you are not alone, we are standing here for you with
open arms.Over the last week during the time of this tragedy our hearts
have been behind you all the way. On the streets of Melbourne bouquets of
flowers, teddy bears and cards have been left in your honour. Along with
the rest of the world we have felt the deep repercussions of this tragedy
and many tears have been shed.We send with this letter a message of hope
and that we will stand by your side when you need us.

to convey our deepest sympathy and admiration for you...

If your feeling useless
going through strife,
the person whose to blame,
has a bleak disregard for life.
It is a time to cry,
to let your feelings go,
when your heart is ready,
a smile will then show.
You may be feeling acrimony,
that all life isinyour hands,
but you have people to fall back on,
coming from all lands.
You are not to blame,
so hold your heads up high,
we will shed your tears,
when you need to cry.
Blink back your tears,
lift your head and try to stand,
because were standing here,
and we're holding out our hands.
It's notjust us there's others here,
standing by your side,
we'll laugh with you when your happy,
and when your sad we'll cry.
Until then remember,
that we'll always care
and we promise with all our hearts,
we'll always be there.
Here is a heart felt message,
coming from Australia to your home,
These few words say everything...


With all the love in our hearts
Courtney and Rebecca.
