KRB on the Road in NSW: 2022 and 2023

Kincoppal-Rose Bay School has been out and about in NSW during 2022 after Covid restrictions lifted. We have covered 8,000km on the road, including attending the inspiring Isolated Children’s Parents’ Association 50th Anniversary Conference in Bourke.

Celebratory, relaxed KRB Community Gatherings were held at Wagga Wagga, Warren, Young and Orange. Events planned in Gilgandra and Moree were postponed to 2023, due to many country families in the vicinity being busy with farm demands.

Flooding caused havoc elsewhere as the KRB community discovered at the Warren function, when several families were marooned at home, including the host family property being just accessible in a last-minute decision.

Boarding Schools Expos, attended by the Director of Boarding, the Boarding Engagement Coordinator and KRB Parent Ambassadors were held in Dubbo, Wagga Wagga, Moree and Tamworth.

Visits to individual families on properties and to parish schools have enabled face to face contact again, at last! There has been lots of chatting and delivery of extensive information to prospective and current KRB boarding families over welcoming cups of tea.

2023 KRB Gatherings will include Griffith, Moree and Gilgandra.
