“Each year Kawana Waters State College holds Sunflower Day. A day to honour the memory of Brooke M; a kind, caring and respected colleague / teacher / friend. Brooke sadly lost her life, and the life of her baby boy, Max, to bowel cancer in 2021. This year Brooke’s family and our school community enjoyed an afternoon of games and fundraising stalls, raising a total of $1746.15.

Included in the photos are sunflower decorations made by students and cookies made by students to sell. Rocks were painted by a staff member and sold on the day.” ~ Andrea
