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.

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.

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.
