Please send along a plate of ‘yummies’ for us to sell. Sending spending money with some change is always helpful.We look forward to having a great night.

Please remember this event is not open to high schoolers.

SoccerToday the Woodburn Public School soccer team made a courageous attempt to beat the Evans River soccer team at the Woodburn Oval. We lost 1 - 0. Man of the Match was Casey Deahm. The defenders did a great job. Great try guys!

Shane’s Simplicities......School Jumpers

Just a gentle reminder to families who have misplaced school jumpers to ensure you have checked with our school lost property. We are hoping all owned jumpers are reclaimed before any remaining jumpers are sold off at a very low cost.

Until next week…….
