When Lachlan Hansen, Sam Wright, Scott McMahon and Gavin Urquhart arrived at St. Christopher's in Airport West, they received a reception to remember.

The players were special guests at the school's Footy Day and couldn't have been more excited to be welcomed by 70 children all dressed from head to toe in royal blue and white. It was blatantly obvious North Melbourne was the team of choice.

An educational football clinic proved popular as always, while some quirky questions from the students kept the players in check.

Most of all though, the thrill of meeting some AFL stars guaranteed the kids went home with some stories to tell for years to come.
