Elders Visit

We welcomed to our Coolangahs Kaartdijin class yesterday local elders Aunt Vi and Uncle Mort Hansen who spoke about bush medicine and how to use certain plants in everyday living.

Path removal – assistance wanted

Assistance is requested to remove the old, paved paths between the Harmony Garden and gazebo in the nature playground to allow paths to be upgraded and the Coolangahs Kaartdijins totems installed. The date is to be confirmed (either a weekend morning or a few hours after school in the next week or two). It will require a shovels, a crowbar, a few muscles and a bit of teamwork. If you are willing to assist (pending your availability) please send me an email at president@curtinprimarypandc.com.au so we can make it happen. It’s a great opportunity to catch up with other parents and get involved – many hands makes light work!
