Professor Clyne very kindly agreed to be one of the patrons of the German Australian Playschool, playgroups and scouts, saying the programs promoted the sort of Australia he wanted to be part of. His involvement and encouragement raised our expectations of ourselves and of our children, to the benefit of other language programs for children in Canberra and beyond, also. Professor Clyne, you were an inspiration to many; and your encouragement and humbleness will have long felt effects. Many thanks. In peace, and with love, from your German friends at Spielwelt.
