PREMIUM News Gallery | Tongala Primary School Big Freeze By Rohan Aldous Jun 21, 2022 No joke: Tongala football prodigy Harley Reid, a star with the Bendigo Pioneers this season and now a member of the VCFL under-18 squad, as The Joker during Tongala Primary School’s Fight MND Big Freeze day. Cat in the Hat: Dr Seuss’ famous character was brought to life when Tongala Football Club senior coach Jordan Souter channelled his alias for the event. He was the first slider on the 12-strong program. Cheap shot: Students take the opportunity to get in a cheap shot with Rod Alley (alias The Shark) at the Tongalafund raising event. Australian, and proud: Sam Lyon and his “loud’’ shirt co-ordinated the Big Freeze event, the school’s first since 2018. Splashdown: Lauren Bennett took to the slide as a Minion, giving out bananas prior to tackling the freezing cold ice bath. Riding high: Unicorn Melissa Pearce midway down the slide on Friday. Popular character: Tongala Primary School’s Ronny from Tonny, alias Kaitlyn Ohlsen, was brought to life for the slide. Who needs a broomstick: St Patrick’s Primary School principal Jackie Stockdale prepares for a crash landing. No Goose: Having completed his slide, Tongala Primary School teacher Dylan Cuttriss (back centre) was mobbed by adoring fans of his character, Maverick. By Rohan Aldous Contributor
