Push Cart Derby
Next Tuesday the boys from 6/5D, their dads and some grandads with all our male staff set off to East-ern Creek to compete in the NSW Push Cart Derby. The day should be a lot of fun and is the culmination of a lot of learning activities. Following the day we have decided to raffle the Push Cart. Tickets will be $5 each and will be sold at school. The cart is really well built and cost a good deal of money.
