Bringing any event together takes the organisation of many volunteers and we extend our sincere thanks to Phyllis Peterson, Sinthia Anticevich and Marie Nottage for organising the recent Basketball Support Group Fundraiser—a wonderful social event held on the night of Friday 23 November 2016.

It was also a very successful night for the fashion savvy thanks to the great support from many Stanmore and Wyvern parents. Ruth Tate and the Design Collective supplied outfits for the show which featured clothing, accessories and jewellery in a parade of over 50 outfits. 

Held in the Function Room in the Taylor Sports Centre, the Newington ovals provided a picturesque backdrop for the early evening event, and the chance was taken to catch-up with basketball friends without the nervous tension of a three-point shot on the siren. 

While all funds raised contributed to making the upcoming Basketball Tour more affordable, the event also provided the community connection that the Parents and Friends’ Association members try hard to promote in their charter, that being opportunities to meet with a beneficial network of school parents who are sharing a similar journey.
