Our students were helped by many incredible volunteers on the day, and we greatly appreciated the many parents and guardians who helped make this such a special event.

Friends of Equestrian
A very big thank you is extended to the outgoing Friends of Equestrian committee; Sherie Vicary-Carter (President), Sandra Garland (Secretary), Keeley Thomas and Jacqui McGregor-Thomas.
They are to be congratulated on their commitment to support our Equestrian riders and their tremendous efforts in coordinating our annual Tintern Grammar Horse Trials.
The resignation of these members has left a considerable hole in the working group and we are now calling for new members.
If you have an interest in Equestrian activities or would just like to be involved, please contact Di Lacey in the Community Relations Office on 9845 7877 or communityrelations@tintern.vic.edu.au to find out more.
We congratulate current parent, Kevin Jones and past parent Judy Rodsted-Wood for stepping up to take the reins as Co-Presidents.
