The big Community Fair

Our Fair Committee - made up of Anne Lacy, Christine Smith, Sharyn Majchrzak, Pam Cosker, Amanda Page, Jo Berry, Kirsty Schulze, Jess Quin, Hayley Stoddart, Elise Reardon & Sharon Cook - deserve high commendation for their dedication, hard work and hours of organisation that went into this year’s Community Fair.

The 2018 Fair was wonderful. The weather cleared in the morning and we had a warm and sunny afternoon with a few strong wind gusts. Dominiku Daiko opened the Fair with an amazing performance on the Taiko Drums and the food and classroom stalls did a roaring trade all afternoon.

We had a great mix of old favourites like Lucky Jars, Showbags, Chocolate Wheel, Snow Cones and Fairy Floss as well as some new entertainment and food stalls including Hobart Hurricanes, Sands’ Crazy Bikes, Tornado Potatoes, Hot Roast Rolls and a Wine Lucky Dip.

The P&F put together another fantastic Major Raffle with a Trailer full of goodies and a Vuly Trampoline being major draw cards, making sure tickets were in demand. Our Silent Auction also doubled in size due to very generous donations from our sponsors and was a roaring success.

Thank you to the College’s Maintenance team for all their hard work with both set up and pack up on Fair Day and to all the volunteers, teachers, office staff and students who make the Community Fair a highlight of the school year.

The Parents & Friends AGM will be held at our first meeting in February 2019 and I would encourage all parents, grandparents and carers to think about being part of this amazing dynamic group. Everyone is welcome to attend a meeting or volunteer at one of our yearly events as any involvement you can give makes a lasting impact.

Thanks again to everyone who has supported the P&F this year whether it was through participation, donations or volunteering your precious family time and I hope to see you all in 2019 for another great year!
