The June and July school holidays went off with a bang. There were many participants that made the holiday activities successful. The bowling and mini putt-putt trip was lots of fun and provided an adventure for those who participated. The Skate Park graffiti attracted many of the local youth to gain ownership in the re-designing of the Skate Park. There were a lot of young people who participated in between skating and other activities. The first Decathlon was successfully held with many young people participating in BMX riding, skating time trials, various playstation games and pool competition. The following week attracted a crowd for a trip to the movies to see “Kung Fu Panda”. This trip was a blast. The major trip to Sea World was an experience of a lifetime for many young people of the South Burnett. With the long day drawing to the end, most of the young people thoroughly enjoyed the day and are already asking about the next school holidays and what is in store for then. Overall, the June and July school holidays were a success with a few changes ready to be made for September and October.
