Pupil Free Day

A reminder that this Friday will be a pupil free day at

Baradine Central School to allow staff to do their Term 3

staff development/training day. I apologise for any

inconvenience this will create for parents, but on this

occasion, it is very necessary.

There will not be any organised supervision of students.

Parents of students who turn up to school, will be contacted

to collect them.

NAIDOC

Last Friday was our joint NAIDOC celebration with the local

community and schools. Thank you to the Baradine Local

Aboriginal Lands Council for organising the day on Country.

The students learnt about Gamilaroi culture including the

meaning of the smoking ceremony along with the

significance of Country to the people. The visiting dance

group was both entertaining and informative.

Small Schools Rugby League Knockout

On Thursday 25th July our under 13s boys combined with Gulargambone

Central to take on Guyra Central School in the semi-finals of the Small

Schools Knockout. Our boys put in a fantastic effort and played with a lot

of heart but unfortunately came up against a very solid opposition and

couldn’t get the win. We are very proud of the performance they put in

and congratulate them on what they have achieved.

Big effort at State Cross Country!

On Friday 26th July Clinton Lennon competed for North West at the State Cross

Country Championships in Sydney.

Clinton competed in the 8km event, completing the course in an impressive 39

minutes. This placed him in the top 80 in the entire state for 17+ years boys.

A huge effort from him, one that we are very proud of!

UNICEF Australia -NSW Youth Summit on Living with Drought

Are you a young person (14-24 years) impacted by the NSW drought? UNICEF Australia invites you to apply for the first NSW Youth Summit on Living with Drought!

UNICEF Australia, with support from the NSW Government, is hosting the first Youth Summit for young people living with drought in NSW. The Summit will be a forum for meaningful, action-oriented discussion between young people, policy-makers and service providers about how to more effectively support young people and children experiencing drought. It is also a chance to have a break from the land, build new connections with others going through similar struggles, and to connect, engage and reflect, surrounded by beautiful Lake Macquarie.

If you’re aged 14-24 years and are impacted by drought, participating in the NSW Youth Drought Summit is a unique and exciting opportunity to speak up for drought-affected children and young people.

Applications close on Friday, 30 August at 11:59pm AEST.
