Red Room Poetry Competition

Congratulations to Sienna Thompson who was awarded the REX primary poetry award in the Red Room Poetry object competition last week.

Sienna, her parents, Mrs Canning, Mrs Hogg, Mrs Ball and a selection of her peers waited in anticipation during the live stream from the Powerhouse Musuem in Sydney and were delighted when Sienna's name was announced.

An outstanding achievement!
