Yarning Circle

Last year the Aboriginal Education Team, looked at some designs for a Yarning Circle at LEPS. In consultation with the community, the following design was the first choice.

 If you would like to make any further suggestions, please indicate on the board at school or give Nathan Raynor a call on 6025 1157. We need all the suggestions back by Monday 2 March.

This will ensure we have the Yarning Circle ready for opening in NAIDOC week Term 2.
