Life On A Cattle Station In Australia
While I was in Australia, I got to see what life is like on a cattle station there and met 2 kids named Ben and Franzie who lived on one. This essay shows what it’s like to live on a cattle station.
A cattle station is a huge farm with lots of cows. Some can even reach 5 million acres and can have up to 1OO,OOO cows! At Bullo River Station, they have a helicopter, a plane, lots of 4 wheelers for herding cattle, a runway, and lots of animals.
School for them on a cattle station is really interesting. They have one room, for two, one teacher, occasional trips to other cities for school, and classmates by using the internet and School of the Air.
Besides school, they do lots of interesting things like climbing trees, hunting wallabies (poor wallabies), riding motorcycles, doing some work on the 
station, and playing with their pets. They have a black-headed python, 2 birds, 2 cats, and a dog named Boss for pets. They also don’t play any sports.
They don’t have many friends nearby, since it is a 3 hour drive to the closest city, but they do have friends on the internet, which they have only met in person a few times. Their also have friends that are visitors and the people who work on the cattle station.
If I lived on a cattle station, I would like playing outside, climbing trees, riding the 4-wheelers, and looking for birds, reptiles, mammals, and going fishing on the river they have on their property. I wouldn’t like being in a school room by myself or with Sterling for 6-8 hours a day. Also, I wouldn’t like that it’s hard to play team sports, that I wouldn’t have any friends nearby besides Sterling, and every night having to worry about the python coming into my room and eating me 
. I think it would be really interesting to live on a cattle station.
