The StormCo students and their supervisors from the Avondale School are back in Cobar this week to put smiles on the faces of Cobar residents, young and old. It’s the 30th year of the school providing their StormCo community service to NSW. This week they are running their traditional school holiday free Kids Club activities at the primary school for kids aged 5-12 years with clowns, stories, songs, games, puppets, balloons and craft activities (as pictured above). The gang will also be doing some community service work around town and this year that includes helping Cobar Shire Council to clean up the Children’s War Memorial Hostel Hall in readiness for COOSH (Cobar Out Of School Hours care) to move into.
