Thursday, 17 May 2007 Channel Nine news reader Rob Kelvin headed back to school today to support the sixth annual Back To School Day – a national program which provides public education students with inspirational role models in the form of previous students. Rob attended the morning assembly where he spoke to the Flinders Park Primary School students about his days at school and his media career. There were plenty of eager hands raised during question time and Rob endeavoured to answer as many questions as time would allow. Rob then met with the SRC who took him on a guided tour of the school. He was impressed by the facilities available to the school and the friendliness of both staff and students. The morning tea provided and the fruit basket was also a treat. Thanks to everyone for having Rob and the news crew visit Flinders Park Primary School.
