Along with many locals my family and I had great fun at the recent Wilkins Fair Day on 8 September. Fair Day is a huge event on the local calendar, with over 5,000 people visiting the school on the day for rides, games, and food with students providing performances all day. This year's event raised over $40,000 which will go towards two important projects: upgrading and extending the current play equipment areas and providing stimulating nature-based equipment which will give children the opportunity to explore, play and relax in a calm outdoor space. Throughout the day, nobody went hungry with handmade delights from the canteen, and the ever-popular lemonade stand. The cake stall was loaded with fresh goodies and the classic BBQ was run by an army of dedicated parent volunteers. Congratulations to Wilkins P&C President, Kimberley Ashton and Katrina Byrne and Gianna Spencer the key organisers of the event. I'd also like to make a special call out to the P&C Vice President, MC and stage manager for the day Lucy Suze who kept things running smoothly. Thanks and congratulations to all involved in delivering such an amazing day for our local community!
