If the secret of success in rugby league is training, training, training … the secret to success at\u00a0school is pretty much the same: make every day count.<\/p>\n

The Try for 5!\u00a0 initiative by the Brisbane Broncos and NQ Cowboys has been adding some incentives to the “every day, on time” message at Murgon State School.<\/p>\n

It all paid off for the students of multi-age class Year 1\/2 on Friday afternoon when former Kangaroo, State of Origin and Broncos star Justin Hodges dropped into the school bearing gifts.<\/p>\n

Year 1\/2 teacher Sarah Ridder said she was very proud of her 20 young charges.<\/p>\n

The six and seven-year-olds had the best attendance figures for the term.<\/p>\n

“There were a number of weeks with 100 per cent attendance. Their attendance is amazing,” she said.<\/p>\n

Three times – for six weeks in a row – they topped the school’s attendance records.<\/p>\n

To reward the children for their great effort, Justin presented each one with a signed football.<\/p>\n

Each of the Year 1\/2 students also enjoyed some one-on-one time with the star.<\/p>\n

Ms Ridder said it was the first time the Try For 5! program had run at Murgon State School and it had been a great success.<\/p>\n
