What a Wonderful Day!!

Despite the terrible weather and the fact that the

jumping castle was inundated with water a very good time

was had by all.

Our staff were amazing,

working so hard to keep

everyone as dry as possible and as happy as possible. So

many family members came to help out and to support our

students.

The smiles on the faces of our kids was worth all of the

effort everyone put in.

As always there are so many people to thank. We had staff

organising and packing buses on

Wednesday afternoon, staff

shopping for supplies. Lots of

organisers and a great deal of

extra effort from everyone.

However the whole idea for the

day, the fund raising and bulk of

the organising came from just one

Congratulations to our Little Treasures.

Keep up the good work!!

For the last week of term 1, Joss, Leonie and 6

senior boys were on bike camp. The aim was to

ride 100km around Myrtleford over 2 days along

with 16 other special schools.

We all managed the full bike ride, we did 40km on

Tuesday riding from Beechworth to Myrtleford,

then another 60km on Thursday riding from

Myrtleford to Bright and back! All boys were very

proud of themselves for making the whole

distance!

We had a relaxing day on Wednesday, We went

swimming & had a walk around the town of Bright,

then a bush walk in Myrtleford to a lookout.

“I feel good getting out

of my wheelchair and

standing in the standing

frame.“

“Thank you, my dear

teacher.”
