Redlands Spring Fair
Over 3,000 people from the School community and local area came out to enjoy the festivities and sunshine at our Redlands Spring Fair last Saturday 15 September.
The Redlands Spring Fair was in full bloom and the positive energy and goodwill was felt by all throughout the day. The carnival fun was evident when looking at the happy smiling faces of our children as they raced with their friends from one ride to the next.
The Fair is a major social opportunity for Redlands families during the year and it was a wonderful spring day to catch up and chat with friends.
A Big Thank You!
A full school event like the Spring Fair doesn’t happen without a generosity of spirit and a significant contribution of those in our School community that freely give of their time and energy.
A big thank you to all the volunteers who cheerfully and enthusiastically participated not only on the day but leading up to and in preparation of this event. It was lovely to see parents, students, alumni and staff all pulling together and contributing to the success of the day. Events like Spring Fair wouldn’t be the same without our wonderful volunteers.
The feedback has been truly amazing by all in the community and I will treasure the beautiful memories.
The fair is expecting to raise $60,000 in surplus revenues which will go directly towards outdoor equipment on both the Junior and Senior Campuses.
