Thanks to all involved in a wonderful night at the INSPIRE Art show. Ms Ashburton, Ms Spence, staff and students did a wonderful job putting the show together, and it was truly spectacular. Thanks also to our auctioneer John Watts and the generous contributions made by those purchasing artworks during the evening.

Wow. What an outstanding morning last Friday watching our young people providing a template to the United Nations on how it should be done. Congratulations to all involved – our future world is in good hands if this is the calibre of our future leaders. Special thanks to Sanjana for her work as Chair – she was outstanding.
