The City of Armadale has partnered with Gwynne Park Primary School this week to deliver school work packs to more than 2000 students in the Armadale area.
Gwynne Park Primary School Principal Sam Prodonovich was joined by Mayor Ruth Butterfield, Minnawarra Ward councillors Cr Gary Smith and Cr Kerry Busby and school staff on Tuesday morning.
The City donated stationary and activity packs as well as the provision of a City vehicle and a driver to support the school, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The Council provided items including sports equipment, decks of cards, pencils, chalk and crayons and modelling clay which has gone to about 200-300 families and about 2000 kids in the Armadale area,” said Gwynne Park Primary School Principal, Sam Prodonovich.
“We’re really proud of how seriously our community has taken the government’s advice.”
Mayor Ruth Butterfield said she was always impressed by the community spirit shown by people in the City of Armadale.
“The work of Gwynne Park Primary School is a fantastic example of collaboration, where everyone has pulled together to make a real difference at this challenging time,” said Mayor Butterfield. “Our schools, students and their families are the grass roots of the City of Armadale community and we are delighted to provide support.”
