Outdoor Learning Wishlist

To all of our Onthank families and friends,

We are in the process of giving our outdoor areas some much needed TLC but we need YOU to help! If you are keen and able to help out, please don’t shy away and lend a hand. You may also have access to some supplies from our wish list – if you or someone you know is able to source some of the items please do get in touch.

We have a wooden train in the back car park which is need of some TLC. The flooring is weak, the roof is needing repaired and it could use a fresh coat of paint. If anyone can provide resources or expertise to help us with this, please contact the office.
