Pickleball tournament this weekend
The Wangaratta Pickleball Club is hosting one of the highest ranked tournaments on the Australian Pickleball Calendar called ‘Battle Of The Border’. This is a tournament where the Top 10 Male players from Victoria vs Top 10 Male from NSW AND the Top 10 Female players in Victoria vs Top 10 Female players in NSW. It is a free event for spectators to come and watch and also a good opportunity to see some of the best in the 2 states play each other. The tournament will also present the opportunity for spectators to connect with the biggest pickleball club in the state which is the Wangaratta Pickleball Club and find more details as to how to join the club and get involved.
The students can bring their family and friends to spectate and also get involved in some fun activities and raffle to stand a chance to win a couple of top-quality pickleball racquets amongst the raffle prizes to give away. Also, please note the funds raised through the raffle will go towards the club purchasing an automated defibrillator adding to another good cause for the community.

Need a dress or a suit for a special occasion, perhaps for our coming Deb Ball? Why not try the local Beechworth Formal Attire Library.
How the library works is you pay a $50 deposit for an item of your choice and borrow it for a day or a couple of days before the occasion, wear it, have a great time and return the item clean and in good condition. If the dress passes the required cleanliness, etc., you will receive your $50 back. That's why they call it a Library - you borrow and bring the item back.
If you have any enquiries outside of school events, please contact Josephine Cornish via email josephinecornish09@gmail.com, if you are attending one of our school events, please come and see Rebecca Younger at the office.
