Tinonee Public School
A special Anzac assembly was held at the school on Tuesday, April 9 with two visiting veterans attending and participating in the service. The service was a little earlier than normal as Anzac Day falls within the school holiday break this year.
Planning is under way for the Stage Two excursion for Years 3 and 4 students which will be held at The Great Aussie Bush Camp in term three.
Canteen supervisor Michelle would like to thank all the help and support of the Easter recess recently. The chocolate buns, muffins and popcorn went down a real treat.
When the school returns after the holiday break they will working on a new winter menu, I am sure there will be some very tasty morsels.
Tinonee Public School is one of three entrants in April's Greater Bank Community Funding Program which, if they receive the most votes will give them a healthy $2000 towards school projects or if one of two runner up groups, will take away $500.

Sincere condolences
Deepest sympathy is extended to friend and Wingham resident Nancy Boyling and family on the passing of her husband, John Anthony Boyling aged 82 years on April 3. John's funeral was conducted at St Matthew's Anglican Church on Thursday, April 11. Relatives and friends later gathered in the church's Fellowship Hall to remember and share memories of John.
Wet weekend
What a weekend it was last weekend with the heavy rain on Friday then sunshine on Saturday and back to rain on Sunday. Thankfully we didn't have any major flooding but even so, the Manning River is still very muddy looking as it flows under The Bight Bridge. Tanks should all be full and household's lawns and gardens are enjoying the damp conditions.
