Cook Shire Council Local Government Week 2007
This year we celebrated Local Government Week with several different activities.
The children from Cooktown State School as well home schooled students, put their talents to the test in a state wide colouring competition. Danielle Matthews from year 5, won the North West Peninsula Regional Award, a first for the Cook Shire. All students that entered received a Cook Shire certificate of excellence with three encouragement awards also handed out to each section.
Senior students from the Cooktown State School attended Council’s May meeting, getting involved in discussions regarding Cooktown’s new Community Events Centre.
Community members were treated to a free sausage sizzle and give-aways on Friday 1st June at the Cook Shire Council Office.
