ART ATTACK 2019
WHAT A SUCCESS!
We started the day with a rainbow and everything flowed from there!
We are so very grateful to EVERYONE who made Ripper Art a success. Our school was full of happy children taking part in all manner of art and craft activitites – it was a wonderful way to showcase and celebrate the fabulous spirit of participation and community at Ripponlea Primary. And it wasn’t just the kids who had a ball – the parents and friends enjoyed our spectacular Art Show and had great fun trying to outbid each other at the Art Auction on Saturday night.
To every family who donated items for our craft activities or delivered a flier or invited a friend or sold a raffle ticket or hosted a billboard or helped on a stall on the day or bought some art ... we say a heartfelt and sincere THANK YOU! You helped to raise $20,000 (we hope!) for school resources and environment improvements – we’ll let you know final results next term.
Ripper Art is truly a whole community event but we know it wouldn’t happen without the hard work and extraordinary time and effort from some key contributors and they deserve acknowledgment:
