JAPANESE VISITORS FROM NAMEGATA
Dromana College had the pleasure of hosting 17 students and 3 staff from Namegata City in Japan. The students spent 5 nights with host families who made their stay very memorable .
Our special visitors arrived on Friday 2nd August and stayed until Wednesday 7th August. Friday and Monday were spent at Dromana College participating in school life and Tuesday at Dromana Primary School and Red Hill Primary School where they participated in a Japanese day and joined in Japanese classes.
Although the weather was very cold the Japanese students still managed to get out and about and had an amazing time.
We would like to thank all the host families for opening their homes and hearts to these lovely students and look forward to your continuing support in hosting again.

We urgently need volunteers for the Dromana College Breakfast Club program. Our Breakfast Club has a wonderful group of Parents, Grandparents and Students getting together every Wednesday morning to provide breakfast for our students. Any time you can give would be much appreciated.
The Breakfast Club runs from 7.30am to 9.00am every Wednesday, serving hot Milo and toast with jam, Vegemite or honey. If you are keen to help please contact me at the College, or if you would like to donate any of the following items please leave at the front office. The items we use are long life milk, margarine, jam, Vegemite, Milo, hot chocolate, napkins and disposable gloves. Make sure you leave your details so we can thank you or the company who made the donation. We have a letter at the College to ask for donations if you require one.
FREE BREAD BAKERS DELIGHT
Please support this business as loyally as they support us. They donate all the bread we use for Breakfast Club every week.
If you shop at Bakers Delight Dromana or Somerville please mention you are from Dromana College to link a 5% annual donation from all your purchases. This will be donated to the schools fundraising team at the end of the year.
