hi i'm tj clement i'm 12 years old
and i clean graves
i start cleaning graves because when i
came to tweed heads
i was like really scared about the
thought that there was a cemetery behind
my house i was like
ghost in that because i was only four
[Music]
and then when we went up there my mum
had an idea of how that
we start cleaning them the thought of
having
ghosts in that it just went away and
then i've continued doing that
until this day
when i got announced it i was like
what like me just doing something for
people and with your like heart
my mum cried when i got the award so i
think she's really proud of me
it makes me feel great because i got
this award i think
because i just want to tell others you
can do this too like i'm only 12
and you guys can just take an hour half
an hour a week to do something for the
community and you guys feel great it's
amazing
it probably takes a year to do all of
them so then when
when you finish a year you start again
it's like oh my god did i do that
because when you see them
all it's like wow there's a lot there
i just really like making people happy
when they see
me like someone's taking care of this
area where your loved ones passed away
in that
it's like a feeling that there's no
words to describe it it's
great
you feel like free up there
and it's a place where i feel like home
and you feel
like really comfortable i love it
[Music]
i just want to do this for the rest of
my life like
i'm i'm proud of myself that i've done
this for this long
and i want to do it forever and ever
you
