SYDNEY – At the Dec 18 funeral of

10-year-old Matilda

– the youngest of the 15 victims of a terrorist attack at Bondi Beach four days earlier – mourners and dignitaries were joined by a team of police who searched beneath vehicles around the cemetery for bombs.

The unprecedented level of security at the burial of a bumblebee-loving child was a reminder that this was no ordinary funeral in a week that has been like no other in Australian history.
