Footy fun at Metung
Bit of fun with the entire Metung Primary School to celebrate Preliminary Final week in the AFL. The students and staff enjoyed a 'footy colours day' with everyone joining in some football-related exercise before the mandatory mini-hot dogs and party pies.
Of course, Tim Bull and I had to help the students out with polishing off some of the footy fare! Tim actually attended Metung PS as a young fella whereas my primary school days were spent at Guthridge PS in Sale. Well done to the teachers and support staff for putting on such a fun event for the student and yes, I found one Swans supporter in the crowd!
