All funds generated will go back into the school\u2019s programs.<\/p>\nPLEASANT Street Primary School\u2019s iconic event, Christmas Fest by the Lake is back with a new supporter.<\/p>\n
Sponsored by Forty Winks, the fest on Friday, 6 December from 4pm to 8pm will have its regular attractions like Santa\u2019s Cave, show bags, rides, and the huge market which is the perfect one-stop shop for all things Christmas.<\/p>\n
Christmas Fest by the Lake Committee Chair, Adam Henderson said over 4000 people are expected to visit the school for the event which has been \u201cgrowing from year to year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve been fortunate enough this year to get over 150 stalls booked and paid for,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019ve got six rides, a showbag van, we\u2019ll have a one-man band on stage performing, live music and busking happening, with plenty of food and beverages to enjoy.\u201d<\/p>\n
All funds generated will go back into the school\u2019s programs.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis event\u2019s a big deal for the school, just to create some additional funds. Our Assistant Principal, Helen Romeril, is very literacy focussed, so any chance she gets to buy books, she\u2019ll do it,\u201d Mr Henderson said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe funds help her buy additional things to help kids progress and increase their strengths.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Henderson said the school is excited by their first year of having a naming rights sponsor.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis year, Forty Winks have come on board for the next couple of years. It helps the school be able to create and maintain programs already there.\u201d<\/p>\n
