SCHOOL PHOTO SURVEY
Dear Parents,
Thanks to everyone who took the time to fill in the survey about the new photo company, MSP Photography. The feedback given was overwhelmingly positive as can be seen from the graph below, with 86 out of 109 people rating 7 or above. I have collated all the comments and will forward them onto MSP for them to consider in the future.

9 coaches
8 team managers
7 committee helpers (many hands make light work)

FAQ
What's happening with all the chairs and desks next to Sports Shed?
All the furniture was in classrooms that have now been re-imagined as 21st Century learning spaces. We have recently sourced a group of volunteers who collect furniture like ours and use it to furnish schools in East Timor. When their next container is ready to be filled, they will collect our furniture.
The furniture will really be well used over there. At this time there are still children in schools in East Timor who sit on the ground and rest the sheet of paper against the back of the child in front of them in order to be able to write. They really are looking forward to receiving our furniture.
