Kyoo no tenki wa doo desu ka? (How is the weather today?) - that's one of the first phrases I learnt. 
I have always wanted to learn Japanese and I realized that if I didn't give it a try now, I would never do it. I've always been more interested in British tv programming over the US (for the most part - there are exceptions). With shows like The Avengers, Danger Man, The Prisoner, Doctor Who, Blake's 7, Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes, Life on Mars, Hustle - to name a few - I'm in TV heaven. 
As for Japanese TV programming, Battle of the Planets is the show that introduced me to anime and got me hooked. Then it was Robotech (Macross Saga especially), Lupin III, Ranma 1/2, and anything by Hayao Miyazaki and so on.
I have to admit that I'm pretty much ignorant about Australia except I do know who Ned Kelly is. Oh and one of my fav obscure Sci-fi authors is Australian - A. Bertram Chandler ("Come In. This is Liberty Hall; you can spit on the mat and call the cat a bastard!").
Cheers,
Tim

TTC subway? I loved it when I lived there. Frequent trains, and very easy to follow the system map. Bus map's a bit more complicated. But every single place you call knows the nearest subway station and which bus to take.
As for books in the classroom, I vote for big stickers on the front, "property of CD, please return after reading". (Just don't cover the important part of the cover, I hate it when magazines do that. Great cover art, covered by the mailing label.)
If you really do want them to sign them out, maybe give each book a number; write down your name or initials, and the book number, rather than the title.
I spent many hours on this site one year when helping the grade 2 teacher:
www.readinga-z.com
Learning to fold the books is a bit tricky, but doable. I printed them from online once, then make photocopies for use. We didn't bother with the colour covers. The books are pretty interesting, good mix of fiction and non-fiction. There are also question sheets and charts to help you record reading abilities, but she didn't use them.
Cheers!
