What a great day!

Yesterday was our Summer Carnival and what a great event it was. The weather was kind to us and it was fantastic to see so many children and their families having a great time together. The line of children waiting to dunk me in the drink was a bit worrying but I'm not taking it personally. ;-)

The event was held to raise money for our playground project and the early indications are that we have made a significant amount, hopefully enough to make our playground dream come true. The next step is for us to have the plans priced by some building firms and start the building process.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended on Sunday; those who donated their time, goods and services and especially to the carnival committee who worked so hard to make the day such a success.

THANK YOU!

A packed term ahead.


Two days in and already term 4 is shaping up to be a big one. Reports, class placements, interviewing for teaching positions and solving some of our property headaches just for starters. Should be good fun!

We are hoping to open the swimming pool in a few weeks time and, if the good weather continues, it should be nice and warm for the first few classes taking a dip.

We are working hard on plans for seating and shade areas in the playground and I am hoping that we will have something to display in the next couple of weeks. Then we can start to get feedback from the whole community on the ideas. The project is the focus of our Summer Carnival fundraising efforts so fingers crossed for plenty of sunshine on the 9th of November.
