1 y separately published work icon Weird School Weird School : Stories from the Weirdest School in Australia Damian Callinan , Melbourne : Puffin , 2021 21545250 2021 selected work short story

'Welcome to Wally Park Primary, the Weirdest School in Australia! A weird and wonderfully funny story collection for readers from 8 to 11.

'Some people think that all schools are all the same. They might have different uniforms, slogans and emblems but in the end, there isn't much difference between them ... THESE PEOPLE ARE WRONG! They have not been to Wally Park P.S.
A normal day at Wally Park would be the weirdest day in any other school's history. With an annual Extreme-Walkathon few students survive, a talking Naughty Tree and an Out of Bounds area you might truly never return from and ruled by the meanest (and most vain) principal in Australia, you have to keep everything crossed that your family is not moving to Wally Park any time soon! A funny and wacky story collection about Australia's weirdest school!'  (Publication summary)
