Hi, my name is Sweetz, I am a Radio Lollipop Koala and I was recently named by Annalise a patient from the Mater Children’s Hospital who entered our competition to choose a name for me.

When I went to give Annalise her great prize, she was staying at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Brisbane (not at the Mater Children’s Hospital where Radio Lollipop is). So, Scott our Chairman helped and I was able to go on a field trip! It was so exciting, I hardly slept the night before and thankfully, Annalise was very pleased to see me and she really loved her prize. Thanks Annalise for a great name. We also visited some other kids while we were at the Royal Children’s Hospital which was heaps of fun.

I really love visiting the kids at the Mater Children’s Hospital, it is so exciting with lots of laughs, hugs and high five’s. The volunteers are fantastic and make sure I stay safe. This one time – in Ward 7 – a nurse came around the corner and almost screamed in fright – it was so funny.

Love Sweetz
