Millaroo State School held a Community Day last Wednesday, December 6 to celebrate the end of the school year with students, special guests and parents.
“We invite everyone from the community, from Millaroo, Dalbeg and Clare, into our school to play games, have fun with the students and have a look at how good our school is,” said Principal Annette Wellington.
Students took part in games and cricket drills all morning thanks to Queensland Cricket before a visit from Santa had them enchanted.
Fruit was donated by Woolworths while the school’s P&C donated drinks, the sausage sizzle and presents.
Millaroo State School ranges from kindergarten to year 6 and offers playgroup every Friday.
The school had eight enrolments in 2023 and is taking nine students into 2024.
“We have lots of facilities here and cater for all students and all needs,” Ms Wellington said.
“We have a very supportive P&C.
“The kids usually get their tuck shop and food paid for, we give each of the students a healthy snack every day from Woolworths, all excursions and camps are paid for, the school supplies stationery so very little has to be paid for by the parents.
“It’s a small town and a small school, so there’s great one-on-one learning.”
