Year 12: Ag Day
The annual Agricultural day (Ag Day) was a very successful event. For the first time since it started, we had all sub schools involved.
This year we had a variety of equipment that was put together through phone calls and negotiations from Denzil Brooks and Liam McCreery. They included:
- John Deere Machinery (Tractors).
- JCB Machinery (More Tractors).
- RFDS stand (plane cockpit for boys to look around).
- Petting farm for the JS & MS boys.
- Coffee stand from Standin’ Room.
- Lambs on the spit for the MS and SS boys.
The day was an opportunity for our Boarding boys who come from our regional areas to showcase their lives and what living in a farming/regional community means to them.
When we finished counting the money raised over two socials and the Ag day fundraiser we were able to hand over $3000.00 dollars to the Royal Flying Doctors Service.
