On Friday 10 March Upper Coomera State College primary school students Gloved up for Clean Up Australia Day, with students from prep right through to year 6 working hard to keep their school clean. The event was a student leader project, with primary and secondary student leaders working collaboratively to coordinate the day. The sun shone through as students raced to pick up the most rubbish in each year level, with prizes to be won for the winning class.

This year UCSC is 'BravingnShaving', participating in the World's Greatest Shave and raising much needed funds for the Leukaemia Foundation.

The annual Racing The Vale 5km sports challenge fun run was on again at Helensvale. It was great to see a mass of runners all hyped up ready to race. The local Councillor William Owen-Jones Division 2, Gold Coast got into the action and raced the LJ Hooker Teddy Bear, a green turtle and some crazy looking purple guy from Anytime Fitness.

A message from our school zone crossing guards - don't use your mobile phone whilst driving and don't make rude hand signals to the crossing guards when they ask you to stop. They are doing their best to protect everyone's children.
