There will be NO OTHER canteen on this day at the Bull Paddock. Please have your lunch order into the school office by this Thursday 27th.

Franklin Netball PSSA Knockout
Last Friday Franklin Senior Girls Netball Team
played against Young Public School in the PSSA
Netball Knockout at the Tumut Netball Courts.
The weather was cold but sunny and our students
played very well.
Franklin defeated Young 15-9, so our girls will
now progress to the next round of the knockout.
A big thank you to those parents who helped
with transport down to the courts and then back
to school. Thank you to Melissa and Ella
Bradshaw who were our umpires for the game
and thanks also to Ms Gould who coordinates
and coaches our netball teams.
Reminder that the Schools Cup Netball Gala Day is on THIS Wednesday at the Tumut Netball Courts and
Franklin will be participating in this sporting event as well. Students are to make their own way to the
courts by 9am and can either go home with a parent after the Gala Day is finished or come back to school
and go home their usual way.

Mortimer Shield
Franklin Public School ventured to Twickenham Oval on Tuesday, May 18th for the annual Mortimer Shield Rugby League Gala Day. Franklin were represented positively by our Boys and Girls teams enjoying a beautiful day.
The Boys team had 4 games over the day with plenty of tries scored but the most impressive part of the day was that they only conceded one try. The Boys go on to the Mortimer Shield Wagga finals held on Tuesday, June 22nd (Week 10, Term 2).
The Girls team, led by Miss Gould, also played 4 games. The Girls played fantastically, scoring multiple tries and making desperate try-saving tags. Unfortunately, the Girls were unlucky in not progressing to the next round but most certainly left everything out on the field.
Miss Gould and Mr Mastellotto both wanted to congratulate the students on their outstanding behaviour and positive representation of Franklin Public School.
