Special thanks has to go to ALL our students for their stunning performances over the weekend and resilience through tricky situations. They are some of the most talented individuals.

 Another special special thanks has to go to our wonderful parents who helped out, Trudy Brown and Nikki Nicholls. This weekend was not possible without their support, rescues, problem solving, kind words and calm demeanour.

We are so lucky here at Burnside to have a beautiful community of parents! The amount of encouraging messages from supportive parents we received over the weekend was heartwarming to say the least and kept us going.
