2 Construct a timeline to illustrate the following events in the life of a town.
In 1965 Farro Local Council was inaugurated and the town began to grow. After two years the population reached 10 000 and residents were proud of the progress. A high school was opened in 1978, a hospital in 1967 and a TAFE College in 1982.
Twenty years after the Council first sat, Farro suffered severe water shortages. The parks looked dry for 2 years but then they began to blossom when good rains came. Farro has been growing ever since and by 2000 was thriving and enjoying a big Arts Centre, opened in 1995.

During the night one squirrel woke and ate 6 nuts and put the remaining nuts into three piles again. Later, a second squirrel did the same, hoping to hide the fact that he had eaten 6 nuts. When the third squirrel woke he guessed that the piles of nuts were not as large as they should be. When he counted them there were only 12 nuts in each pile.
