In an attempt to bring the KCOB in Australia closer together we have created a WhatsApp group to facilitate ease of communication; should you wish to be a part of our "Kearsney community down under" please feel free to join through the following link:
https://chat.whatsapp.com/Jlk3eZdoG034bx54DvG3aj
