Richmond school gala


On Friday 8 November Richmond School held their Gala Celebrations. We were celebrating and thanking our community for all their support over the years. It was held at Richmond School. The twilight gala celebration started from 4:30 and finished at 6:30 pm which means that the gala was only 2 hours. 

We set up an outside cafe. There were a lot of people at the twilight gala celebration, some people that came were even in their seventies. They were old pupils that used to come to Richmond School. I came with my mum, my sister and my two brothers. 

 At the twilight gala  we had some exciting activities, they were  skateboards, ramps and cheap skates, two bouncy castle and jeeps, the bouncy castle that was an obstacle course it was even bigger than our class. The  foods were meat pattie sandwiches, bacon butties, sausage sizzles, candy floss, popcorn and fruit. Everything was free because we were thanking our community for their support over the years.  

Richmond school is 138 years old. When Richmond School hit nineteen hundreds (1900) it had stood here for twenty five years old. Which means that the school started in 1875. It used to be across the road at the park before it was moved to this site.

In my opinion I thought that the twilight gala was magnificent and awesome
