Can you assist us to achieve our goal?

Thank you to families and friends who have begun our goal to reach 1000 poppies. As of today, we have 645 poppies.

In 2020 the ANZAC Day theme will be the significance of the Poppy. To highlight the poppy, we are going to create a Poppy Wall as the backdrop in the undercover area. Spotlight has provided assistance with red and black yarn to commence our Poppy Wall but we need assistance from the Burrendah Community.

We would be very grateful for donations of red and black 8ply yarn, acrylic or wool is suitable. If you can assist, please bring any donations to Reception.

If you can knit or crochet would you be available to help create poppies? We will provide you with patterns and yarn to help us create the Poppy Wall.

Please come to Reception if you can assist with our venture.
