Our CWA has had a rather busy month! Our recent Bunnings Stall was very successful, and we’re giving the Albury Cancer Hospital a cheque for $500.
At our meeting, we discussed the Henty Field Days catering. Lyn has made Fruit cakes and her friend Kate Aldridge is decorating them; one will be raffled each day for Mental Health, the Leukaemia Foundation, and Country Hope.
For our International Meeting at the Pleasant Hills Primary School, we featured an Australian style lunch with party pies, homemade sausage rolls, and a big lamington in the shape of Australia. Our guests were the State International Officer, Mrs Jenny Chobdzynski, and the Riverina Group International Officer, Ms Nicole McHenry.
The students gave a presentation on living at their place, which will go on to be judged in the Riverina Group competition. Mrs Chobdzynski plans to turn their presentation into a book for children in poor islands to learn about Australia.

- Junior (18 & under): 1st Natalie Hasler, 2nd Caitlin Barker, 3rd Lachlan Barker.
