Bayswater electorate schools
Mr TAYLOR (Bayswater) (12:47): My annual Bayswater primary schools writing competition was a hit again. There were over 1200 entries in my Bayswater writing competition last year, and I can tell you it was super hard to pick the winners, as they were all wonderful and thoughtful entries on what two local things students would do to support our local environment—amazing responses, so thank you, each and every single one of you. As promised, I wanted to announce the winners from each school in the prep to year 2 and years 3 to 6 categories, so here we go: Cody and Amber from Bayswater Primary School; Cody and Sophie from the Basin Primary School; Blake and Ella from Heathmont East Primary School; Teah and Maja from Boronia West Primary School; Advitha and Indigo from Boronia Heights Primary School; Liam and Summer from Marlborough Primary School; Abby and Trevin from Great Ryrie Primary School; Matilda and Aine from Boronia K–12 College; Fred and Emma from St Joseph’s Primary School; Ella and Mila from Our Lady of Lourdes Primary School; Chase and Genevieve from Templeton Primary School; and Summer and Seth from Ferntree Gully North Primary School. It was great to also have five overall winners from that list who scored their schools 200 bucks worth of books that I was proud to purchase and donate—some very, very happy librarians.
