Hue-mungous hi-jinks

Psychedelic colours spilled across Netherton School as students and teachers alike tackled an obstacle course fun run on August 8.

As participants zigzagged their way over hurdles, under netting and down the slip n slide, they were pelted with vibrant handfuls of coloured powder. The whole school joined in for forty minutes of pure joy. 

“Days like this are so important for our school and it is a neat way of bringing all of our community together,” principal Brook Hill said. 

“It was heaps of fun and the kids seemed to love it….as did the teachers…although they will never admit it!” 

ALICE PARMINTER was there to capture the chaos.
