Purchase a picket on a new Medowie Public school fence Medowie, Ferodale, Campvale by News Of The Area - Modern Media - August 8, 2016August 8, 2016 Medowie Public School with the current wire front fence. THE ageing wire fence along the front of Medowie Public School has seen better days. With their new look digital sign, Medowie PS wants to replace their old fence with a new, colourbond picket fence, keeping in style with the community based, country feel of the school. The school has come up with an ingenious way to raise the funds, with their new ‘purchase a picket’ fundraiser. For a small fee, families and businesses can purchase a picket and mark a place for their family or business on the new fence. Families can purchase a picket for $20, which will include a small plaque attached with the donor details. Want your business advertised online with the News Of The Area?
