Lugarno Public School

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley) (13:38:00):

I inform the House that this is my 600th speech in this Chamber. I acknowledge the Lions Club of Lugarno and Lugarno Public School, who in partnership are supporting the Big Red Kidney Bus. Recently a few members of Lugarno Public School Parents and Citizens [P&C] and principal Justine Williams attended a trivia night fundraiser hosted by Lugarno Lions in support of the Big Red Kidney Bus. The Big Red Kidney Bus is a service open to all Australians in hospital, satellite or home dialysis. The program gives patients the chance to have a holiday for up to six weeks while still receiving treatment and being under the care of experienced dialysis nurses. Popular holiday destinations across New South Wales include Nelson Bay, Kiama, Katoomba and Port Macquarie. I congratulate the Lions Club of Lugarno on hosting a successful trivia night. I also acknowledge Lugarno Public School P&C and Principal Justine Williams for their enthusiasm and willingness to participate in such events in their own time on the school's behalf, raising much‑needed funds for the Lugarno Lions and the Big Red Kidney Bus.
