We are so lucky to be a part of such a great community. A big thank you to our local CWAs. What a great job they do! To Janine and the lovely ladies from Morwell CWA who will be supporting us in our upcoming Community heat bag/RU Ok project and hopefully working together in the future, and the Traralgon CWA day group who have delivered beautiful knitted blankets and baby clothing to keep our KYPP kids warm this winter. What you do is so appreciated, thank you.

What is Community? It means different things to different people, but connections to community are so important.
Today we connected with our communities by....
- Serving coffees to the Kurnai College leadership group
- Selling and serving lunches to the FLO staff as part of our hospitality certificate
- By some attending the fabulous VPC All In Reconcilliation event to see the great work they have been doing and by some making Community t-shirts for upcoming events.
It was a great day for the Kurnai Young Parents Program to connect with our Kurnai College teaching and learning community.
