By Monique Glavonjic on behalf of the Radford College Parents & Friends Association

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to those families that joined us at our Welcome Back BBQ. It was a joyous and memorable event, and their presence made it even more special.

We are grateful for the opportunity to connect with our school community and celebrate the start of a new academic year together. It was wonderful to see the smiling faces of both parents and students enjoying delicious food, participating in fun activities, and forging new friendships.

The support and involvement of families in our school events are invaluable. This active participation sets a great example for our students and reinforces the importance of community spirit.

We would also like to express our gratitude to the dedicated P&F volunteers, facilities team and the College which helped make the event a success. Their hard work and enthusiasm contributed to the smooth running of the BBQ, ensuring that everyone had a fantastic time.

Special thanks to Gecko Gang for their wonderful face painting, glitter tattoos and balloon modelling, GeckoSports for their fun and colourful activities, and the Radford College Foundation for their kind donation of delicious ice creams.

We hope that the Welcome Back BBQ provided an opportunity for families to connect, fostering a sense of belonging and support within our school community. We believe that strong partnerships between home and school are essential in nurturing the growth and development of our students.

We look forward to more exciting events including the Radford College Gala Ball and Radford College Long Lunch. Tickets are available now for both fantastic events!
