Compulsory reporting points

Just finished a cyberexam, one of the questions I got wrong involved a flight along Z56 from Windorah to Charleville via Quilpie and asked where position reports were required. According to my ERC4 (03JUN) Windorah and Charleville are compulsory reporting points and Quilpe is a turning point. None of the answers were just Windorah and Charleville, think the options were- at all 3, no position reports required, Quilpe and Windorah, Quilpe and Charleville.
Went for all 3 in the end, can't remember if an altitude was specified. Any clues as to where I went wrong?

It is true that Windorah and Charleville have the reporting point symbol. However in this particular trip, Windorah is your departure aerodrome. You would make a departure call on leaving Windorah - that is not a position report. Also you would make an arrival call on arrival at Charleville - that is not a position report. This trip requires no position reports at all.
