There used to be a really important store where this building is now on the corner of 6th Ave and Cameron Road.

Crabbe’s Store sold lots of different things to people who lived around here. There were jars filled with lollies for kids. I would like to buy my lollies from this store.

It is really good that they moved the Store and didn’t get rid of it. It is now at the Boys’ College.
