Galilee Disco - Tomorrow Night
The disco is on tomorrow evening and well over half our students will be attending. A huge thank you to the hardworking team of Years Two and Four parents for their many hours of hard work preparing for the evening. Many parents have volunteered to supervise on the evening and there will be Galilee Staff in attendance. Unfortunately this year I will be unable to attend as my son is celebrating his 18th Birthday!
I am sure a wonderful evening will be had by all and I am looking forward to hearing all about it on Monday.
Please remember all students are to bring their own water bottle and any necessary medications (epipen, asthma inhalers etc).
Students are reminded there are to be no electrical devices (mobiles, cameras etc).
Congratulations!
Jacqui representing Galilee, won Regionals and finished second in the State Champs on the 23rd of April. What an effort!
