We ended up with great weather for the Bernie O’Connor Cup at Yerong Creek. Our students participated in netball and football in combined Greater Kengal Schools teams. A big thank you parents for providing transport and encouragement. A special mention to Grant and Jeremey for helping as ‘behind judges’ for the AFL games.
