Beyond Blue Bash 2017
At the end of Term 3, the Prefect Leadership Team of 2017 held their final Marsden fundraising event - the Beyond Blue Bash in support of building awareness of mental health issues. The students organised a BBQ and Sweet Stall to raise funds for this important cause, and ran a teachers versus students basketball game and organised a staff/student band to entertain us. The current PLT invited the incoming Yr 11 Student Leaders to join them in running this joint event so that they could share ideas and pass on valuable skills and advice.
The Beyond Blue event was a terrific success. We raised approximately $700 to go towards helping young people with mental health issues and the atmosphere on the day was fantastic with powerful music, some impromptu line dancing, a highly-competitive basketball game (in which the Yr 12 students just might have beaten the teachers) and some yummy treats.
Congratulations to our graduating Prefect Leadership Team on another successful event and thank you for all the great initiatives you have put in place over the past 12 months and the fabulous events you have facilitated.
