New infrared camera for nextbox
Thank you to Blue Fin Fishing Club for generously donating funds for an infrared camera.
The camera will be installed in one of the six nestboxes at school to enable students to monitor the activity of gliders and possums in the boxes.






New P&C Iceboxes
Thank you to Greenbank RSL Early this year (2009) Greenbank RSL very generously donated
two large ice boxes to the Pallara State School Parents and Citizens Association.
