Emma and Wariwick Rippon with the bench they crafted and donated to Trundle Central School.
Trundle Central School: A huge thank you to Warwick Rippon and his daughter Emma for constructing an iron bark bench to be used as a fundraiser for the Student Representative Council. The chair was milled and air dried for 12 months before construction took place. It is truly humbling when a member of the school community allocates their valuable time to assist the school. The workmanship in this bench is exceptional.
