This photograph captures a joyful scene from Jacana Primary School’s 1990 Christmas picnic, likely held at Greenvale Reservoir Park—a popular recreational destination north of Melbourne, celebrated for its wide open spaces and welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. The image showcases younger students enjoying an end-of-year celebration, reflecting the school’s commitment to nurturing community spirit through shared outdoor experiences.
