The annual McHappy Day was held around Australia lon Saturday to raise money for McDonald\u2019s charity, the Ronald McDonald House.<\/strong><\/p>\n

McHappy Day is one of the largest national fundraisers for Ronald McDonald House and has been running for over 25 years. Last year, more than $3.95m was raised to support families of seriously ill children.<\/p>\n

Torquay McDonalds hosted their own McHappy Day activities with kids colouringin, face painting, live music, raffles and a visit from the local CFA crew.<\/p>\n

From every Big Mac purchased, $2 was donated to the Ronald McDonald House or customers could donate to the many donation tins around the venue.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme for Mcdonald\u2019s Torquay was Lego, with decorations of Lego characters filling the walls and balloons in specific Lego colours, while colouring-in pictures also allowed kids to get creative with their own Lego characters.<\/p>\n

Live entertainment during the lunch hour from 12.30pm-1.30pm was performed by local duo Lash78.<\/p>\n

The Torquay CFA crew let children explore their vehicle and ask questions about what it\u2019s like to fight fires.<\/p>\n
