Primary Student Leadership team and staff attended CWA's International Day at CWA, Merriwa. They organised a great luncheon featuring food from Papua New Guinea.
Students from Merriwa Central School, under the guidance of Mrs Martin, had been researching Papua New Guinea and had completed posters for the event.
The posters which adorned the walls of the CWA hall were all of a high standard reflecting the work of students and staff.
Guest speaker Emily Gribble of UNICEF outlined some of the projects UNICEF has developed to support the communities in Papua New Guinea. These projects were life changing demonstrating the importance of ongoing health care advances and access to quality health care. The students spoke about their learning experiences and the steps they undertook to complete the poster.
My compliments to the catering team for giving us a taste of Papua New Guinea. Thanks to the organising committee for hosting Merriwa Central School at this marvellous event.
