Green, gold day for Olympic hero

JOINING in with thousands of schools from around the nation, Lidcombe Public School celebrated ‘Green and Gold Day’ earlier this month to mark the Paris Olympics and cheer on former student and Olympic high jumper Brandon Starc.

Wearing green and gold colours to pay tribute to Australia’s Olympians, the students feasted on over 200 cheese toasties at the breakfast event and enjoyed fun activities throughout the day.
“All the children were so excited, throwing their support behind Brandon and hoping to be like their hero one day,” school administration officer Linda Choi said.
“We couldn’t cook the toasties fast enough and we’re already planning how to make our next event even bigger and better.”
