Ella Daphne Stinging Nettle, Queen of the Plants

This week we were lucky to have the kind donation of a school scarecrow. She even comes with a back pack and school uniform. Marilyn Allan made the scarecrow especially for our school garden which is getting lots of tender loving care from the Grade 2/3s. Gardening is also going to be a focus of one of our Friday afternoon club activities. We have named her Ella Daphne Stinging Nettle, Queen of the Plants.

We also got to say goodbye and wish the Year 12s Good Luck for their last days of school as well as their exams. We presented them with very special gift bags that contained many treasurable gifts. These included letters of congratulations and well wishes, very special study glasses, bubble blowers (because they are just still little kids at heart), medals and trophies for surviving 13 years of school, finger tattoos and a few other bits and pieces. Congratulations Tom, Leanna, Amy, Mark and Patric and best wishes for the years ahead.
