Join in this Mother's Day celebration and support a very worthy cause

Our Strings Attached  ensemble will be performing at the Mother's Day lunch organised by the Kew East Mothers Group. Each year these local mums get together for a lovely lunch and fun afternoon to raise funds for charity. This year they have chosen to help Very Special Kids, an Australian children's hospice that provides respite and end of life care.

Update on Mary Ann

Mary Ann is recuperating slowly but on the mend after her fall outside Kalimna last week. The laceration she sustained to her leg was deep and the healing process has been complicated by an infection. She is very appreciative of all the messages of support and well wishes and particularly for the card the students made her.
