Windwhistle Primary School was ecstatic to hold the 17th Windwhistle Golf Classic on 12th May.

We were thrilled to be able to hold the 17th Windwhistle Golf Classic on Thursday 12th May
at Fable Terrace Downs Resort. We had a big playing field of 137 golfers on the day, a record for the event. 

Tournament day dawned sunny with near-perfect golfing conditions for the ambrose tournament. This popular annual event is the major fundraiser each year for Windwhistle School.

The players enjoyed a delicious morning tea before tee-off and packed snacks on course provided by school parents and members of the community. This year the sponsors enjoyed a delicious BBQ lunch kindly provided by Southfuels.

Following 18 holes of golf there was an opportunity to unwind and relax in the clubhouse before the prizegiving and dinner.

The much anticipated and annual auction was also part of the entertainment with GeorgeMannering from Hazletts being the auctioneer for an action-packed auction of amazing donated items such as local experiences, accommodation, meat and art. A silent auction was also popular with “friend against friend” bidding meaning some great funds were raised for the School. The combined auctions were a fantastic success.

A wonderful day out and all in support of a special School.

Results from the day were:

Top Team: Fill Rural

2nd: PGG Wrightson

3rd: Ellesmere Transport

4th: R & R Precision Spreading

The organising committee and Windwhistle School wish to say a huge thank you to the many sponsors listed in the advertisement in this issue that played and donated prizes or money to the school. A very big thank you also to Fable Terrace Downs Resort without whom we could not run this tournament. Special thanks also to Southfuels who provided the BBQ lunch and liquid refreshments. We look forward to seeing you again in 2023.
