On 14th February 2014, the kids, parents and teachers got reght behind the foundation by donating an amazing 422 balls to take the Have a Ball Foundation’s total ball donations to over 5000.
There was a total of 10 bags of balls packaged up which will assist 10 schools in northern QLD and Arnhem Land in the NT, where the kids there will be over the moon when they receive their new equipment.
Roger de Vos from the Have a Ball Foundation spent an unforgetable week with the kids at the school talking to all the classes about indigenous culture and the challenges faced by some of the remote communities around Australia. The teachers and children were extremely welcoming to Roger who all displayed enthusiasm to learn about Roger’s life experiences with the indigenous people during his travelling and work experiences as a tour guide. The week was finished off with a ‘bring a ball day’ to which the kids showed amazing generosity with their donations for the other kids up north.
