Parkes Phoenix

Our Young Bloke – Henry Kross

February 7, 2020 By Maggi Barnard

How old are you? Nine years old.

How long have you lived in or around Parkes, and what do you like about living here? I was born in Parkes.

Where do you go to school and what year are you in? I go to Parkes East Public School and am in Year 5. My teacher is Mrs Robinson.

What is your favourite after school activity? Playing sport – I play squash, soccer, hockey, cricket and touch footy.

What is your favourite food and movie? My favourite food is anything caramel – ice cream, cheesecake, milkshakes, cookies. My favourite movie is Spiderman.

What music do you listen to? My favourite songs are ‘I’m Blue’ and ‘Dance Monkey’, but I like any music.

What do you want to do when you grow up? I really want to be a professional squash player and play at the Commonwealth Games in singles and doubles. I would love to play squash in Egypt, because they have a court made all out of glass in front of the pyramids.

If you could have a super power what would it be? I would like to be able to go through walls and be invisible. I would be able to play the best pranks with these powers!

Tell us an interesting fact about yourself. I love squash. I am Number 1 in NSW for Under 11 boys and Number 3 in Australia. In 2020, I want to win my third NSW State title (for a hattrick) and win an Australian title, and make the NSW Under 13 boys team.
