Hornsby North Public School does it again!

Congratulations to all at Hornsby North Public School. Undoubtedly the most successful fair to date, Hornsby North did not disappoint, and kept to their promise of keeping all ages entertained. No-one would have thought we were in the midst of hard economic times. They certainly put on a show, and this was made obvious that it was put together by true professionals!

The gorgeous kindies sang, followed by Hornsby North’s bands, who not only played well with only seven lessons so far under their belt, but showed true musicianship. This was then followed by the songbirds of the school, the choir, who sang a wonderful medley of ‘Dancing in the Street, I’ll be there and Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’ with real gusto!

Then there was the ‘Sumpton Art Competition’, which seemed to make so many people speechless. Local MP, Mrs Judy Hopwood was at the fair for most of the day, enjoying our school and presented the art awards.  

Not only were there the rides and show bags, but some of the stalls included jewellery, hand bags, Devonshire tea, activity centre for the little ones, craft, an animal farm, the good old fashioned lucky dip, chocolate wheel, (which was a real hit),  and of course food, and left everyone entertained. I didn’t hear the word bored from my kids, once.

If anyone thinks that Australia lacks good quality education and talent, in a great and happy environment…..think again.

Well done Hornsby North, you did it again!
