National Ride2School Day is THIS FRIDAY. All participating students who ride, scoot or walk to school will go in the draw to win a prize! Good luck. 

What is National Ride2School Day?

National Ride2School Day is Australia’s biggest celebration of the fun and joy of riding scootering, skating, or walking to school. It is open to students, teachers, and parents to participate. The aim is to inspire students, teachers, and parents to be active on their journey to school. Go to the Bicycle Network’s National Ride2School Day website for plenty of resources.  National Ride2School Day | Bicycle Network

Calling all garden Extraordinaires!

The Kitchen Garden is reading to have our summer produce cleared from the garden with plans to plant new fruit and vegetables.  Any volunteers be it physical labour or ideas for what should be planted would be appreciated. We would love to get our Gardening Club up and running next term, with some plants to look after. Please email Brooke Danaher or Rebecca Smith with any suggestions or if you are able to do some clearing!
