recently and was ‘‘another awesome<br />

night’’, principal Jared Kelly says.<br />

Food trucks, acoffee van and aboard<br />

families could have anight off cooking.<br />

There was ‘‘a chilled­out live­music<br />

vibe’’ thanks to Chris Gudsell, and Sport<br />

Suzie was on site to entertain the<br />

children while parents met the teachers.<br />

‘‘After so many event cancellations<br />

and restrictions due to Covid, it was<br />

really great to welcome our parent<br />

community in to catch up,’’ Mr Kelly<br />
