Read all about our visit from award-winning actor and play school legend Noni Hazlehurst who was recently honoured by Newman's Own Foundation.

In acknowledgement of her commitment to the community, she was asked to nominate an Australian charity to donate funds to on behalf of the foundation, selecting the Australian literacy and numeracy foundation with funds to be directed to their refugee action support program.

On November 15 Ms Hazlehurst and Newman's Own representatives handed the $US100,000 cheque to the literacy and numeracy foundation at Liverpool West Public School where students are involved in the refugee program.
