UPDATE ON BIKE TRACK

by Jennifer Horgan

The hold up to starting the bike track for Andrew Hollands, Hollands Excavation, is that he needs 600 cubic metres of hardfill. The existing soil in the paddock is not suitable. If anyone knows of someone planning a development or excavation where they need to get rid of hardfill that would be suitable for our bike track pease contact the school.
