Ron Films “Adopt-a-Barra” Story for 7 News
The work never stops in the PLHS Aquaculture Centre! During the first week of the school holidays, we were privileged to host a visit from acclaimed Channel 7 journalist, Ron Kandelaars. In town to film a story about our unique Adopt-a-Barra scheme – which will be aired soon on Channel 7 News – Ron was so impressed that he even adopted his own barramundi son during his visit.
Pictured here are (L-R) Ron Kandelaars, PLHS Aquaculture teacher Mr. Chris McGown and Year 11 Aquaculture students Max Stanley, Evie Wiseman and Kiara Tonkin.
Well done to Chris, Max, Evie and Kiara for giving up some of your school holidays to help promote your outstanding Aquaculture program.

* Many thanks to Mark Thomas from Missing Link Media for the photo.
