We had Judith from Nunawading join our great team of Sue, Barb W, Bob L Stuart and me. Thank you so much Judith! We assisted three schools, Keysborough College, Killester College and Yarram Secondary which Stuart worked with and found that they left Yarram at some unearthly early hour to get to Sandown on time which was by 9-30.
