Spring Fair
The highly anticipated Spring Fair on Sat 3 Sept is a day centred around food, fun and entertainment, showcasing the community’s diversity and depth of students’ art-related activities. We are excited to announce that the Fair will be moving back to the Senior School campus, so we will be able to showcase the new Learning Hub and Fahl Gardens as well as the 100-year old heritage-listed Liggins Building. We have a slew of rides for all ages as well as a KindiFarm of baby animals, traditional carnival games and treats as well as a dunk tank, crazy hair and face painting, and scrumptious foods from Asian and Latin American cultures as well as a sausage sizzle. As always, we would not have a successful fair without your help. Thanks to all the volunteers who have signed up to be stall captains. Please look out for sign-up sheets to help out at the various stalls. In addition, we are launching a colouring competition for all Junior Campus students – entry forms will be distributed in your child’s classroom shortly.
