Also thanks to all the parents who helped with make-up, loaning the video camera, making tails and generally giving your help and support, all very much appreciated.

This Tuesday we had interviews and selected the recommended applicant (Principal).

If you know of any Kindy children who have not enrolled, could you please ask them to contact school asap.
