All enjoyed the barbecue lunch and thanks must go to Landcare and The Indigo Shire for the plants, and the Wahgunyah Progress Association and The Wahgunyah Willows Committee for organising the event.
On Monday 30th July, Tom Hafey – ex Richmond player, Collingwood coach and motivation speaker visited the school to speak with students in years 3-6. Mr Hafey talked about motivation and teamwork and also spoke with staff and parents after school.

They have also been working with Microworlds and have started their fitness regime.
