Cementa 17 goes Bush
The Clandulla State Forest became the Clandulla State Gallery last weekend when Cementa hosted the ‘The Survey Show II’. An eclectic display of images, visions and art, placed on walking trails in a beautiful forest setting.
Thirty one exhibits were viewed by a huge gathering of hardy souls. Cementa continues to impress with their depth of creative thinking and their organisation.
Rylstone Markets
A steady lot of visitors, braving the cold weather, cheered the stall holders at the Rylstone Markets. The outside stall holders were brave, but did, “OK”.
On a cold morning, a hot chocolate with marshmellows is welcomed by Jack, Duke and William from Sydney, as Karl Cook from Portland in his coffee caravan, serves the boys.
Tough Orienteering at Clandulla
With cold, drizzling, rain conditions, a huge contingent of runners turned up at Carwell’s Labyrinth Jarrawood North part of the Clandulla State Forest. Organised by the Central Coast Orienteers, the long weekend was spent running over various courses. Despite the cold, the participants enjoyed the big event.
Kandos High Orientation Camp
The Year 7 orientation camp held at Cudgegong Scout Camp and Dunn’s Swamp, was a huge success this year. Students and staff enjoyed canoeing, orienteering, collaborative games, yummy food, hot milo and getting to know each other in a fun Kandos High way.
A huge thankyou goes out to attending staff and volunteers, who made the camp a life long experience to be remembered by everyone who attended.
An enormous, congratulations must be extended to all students, as they displayed positive, respectful and responsible behaviour across two days. Mrs Arlene Monaghan, Year Advisor.
