From the chook pen to pan to plate!

Education Week at Long Flat Public School was celebrated with an open day, assembly and delicious lunch for all students and parents.

On the menu was a very healthy fried rice which included eggs that were laid by the chickens that the school hatched last year! The lunch was prepared and served by Year 6 students.
