School adopts Batlow as 'bushfire buddy'

Umina Beach Public School will raise funds to support a bushfire-affected school in the South West Slopes region of the State.

Principal Ms Lyn Davis said the school had made Batlow Technology School its "Bushfire Buddy School" and had agreed to fundraise to support Batlow's "student wellbeing day", which ensured all students were provided with lunch.

Ms Davis said fundraising would help cover the costs of providing lunch.

"Our student leaders have already given some thought to the matter and are quite excited at the prospect of conducting some fundraising events.

"Our Parents and Citizens Association has also agreed to make a contribution toward the fundraising efforts of our students," Ms Davis said.
