Member for Nanango, Deb Frecklington has personally presented Coolabunia State School Year Six student, Lillian Alexander, with a new Queensland flag for her school.
Mrs Frecklington made a special trip to Coolabunia State School after Ms Alexander wrote to her on behalf of the school about the need for a new flag.
"I was very impressed by Lillian’s letter and the effort she made to write to me and let me know that the old Queensland flag they had was getting a bit worse for wear," Mrs Frecklington said.
"It was lovely to be able to visit Coolabunia and take the opportunity to speak with the Year 5 and Six students and meet Lillian.
"I also wanted to congratulate Mr Johnson on his recent success at the Darling Downs South West Region Showcase Awards for Excellence in Schools where he was presented with the award for ‘Principal of the Year’.
"Mr Johnson will now progress through the Showcase Awards process and ultimately to the selection of State Finalists, so I was keen to wish him the best of luck.
Queensland flags are available through Deb Frecklington’s office. If your community group or school needs a new Queensland flag, please call Deb’s office on 4190 7100.
