Matilda will have a funeral in a place called Wallara, which is in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, so only a short distance from Bondi Beach.
She'll then be buried at a memorial park not too far away.
So in many ways, Matilda is one of the symbols of this awful tragedy.
So Matilda
Yes, you're absolutely right.
Another day of anguish for not only her family, of course, but the broader community.
In a rare evening address to the American people from the White House, President Trump boasted exuberantly of his accomplishments.
He set out what he sees as the successes of his second term in office so far, mentioning his crackdown on illegal migration into the US, private sector job creation and investment, a ceasefire deal for Gaza and the imposition of global trade tariffs.
It was a speech full of confidence.
America is respected and our country is back stronger than ever before.
Our North America correspondent, Sean Dilley, was listening to the speech.
there weren't really any new policy announcements.
There was an awful lot of talking about what President Trump has done in office and an awful lot of evoking memories of 1776, the signing of the Declaration of Independence by talking about a warrior payment for soldiers, an awful lot of linking the cost of living, as he put it, illegal migration, and he was very much tackling that cost of living issue.
Now, this matters because next year, next November,
Americans are going to go to the polls to vote on the midterm elections.
And he's really not just trying to get Americans as a whole, but he's trying to keep his own party on side, who have criticised him often for focusing on foreign affairs rather than domestic.
The president was very heavily painting one picture of success.
But opinion polls don't necessarily support that, do they?
you're right.
So what he's trying to do is remind people of the successes that he says he's had in his first year.
