We need your help

05 May 2020

Dear Families,

We need your help!

Some of our children have been working very hard with Geoff, Tim Smith, Judy Hunter, Hannah Briggs, Alison Clark-Brown, Gaby Hood and David McCarthy, to clear a section of the back area of the school grounds adjacent to the P and F Shed ready for our outside classroom which includes an Aboriginal perspectives native garden, vegie garden, and fire pit. Thanks to the efforts of Hannah Briggs. Alison Clark – Brown and Gabrielle Hill, we were able to secure an environmental communities grant from $7500 for the project through the office of Julie Collins.

The Parents and Friends have generously provided $1750 towards the purchase of a shipping container that will become a workshop and storage area for our Hands-On student classes run by Tim Smith and Judy Hunter.

The container will eventually be added to complement the area and provide an outdoor eating area with a range of potential uses and our stage three ambition is to include a pizza oven.

We were wondering if there were any parents out there who have contacts for purchasing a good condition 20 ft shipping container. We need a response ASAP, so please contact Tim on 0417552181 or Judy on 0487143766.

Attached is the above information but with a photo of the shipping container that is needed.
