We held an early evening exhibition for the benefit of parents and community members and another one the following morning for classes. The children 'manned' their exhibits and presented explanations and/or performances for anyone who stood in front of them. The evening was particularly successful with around 100 attending, including several of the Committee members who managed Sam's affairs after his death.

 

 

 

The morning session was just as busy and the presenters were delighted with the interest of the junior classes, as well as parents and friends.

 

 

Sam's song "Somewhere There's An Island"

The outcomes were excellent in a variety of learning areas and we had such glowing comments in our Visitors Book. A huge congratulations to all involved and a warm thank you to those who attended and were so positive in their response.
