Term 3 Week 6 - 2023

From the Principal

Dear Parents, Carers, and the St Francis Hughenden Community,

It's finally here! Week 6 marks the grand celebration of our Annual St. Francis Hughenden and Sacred Heart Parish Fete. After much anticipation, the day to revel in joy, games, and community camaraderie is upon us.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has pitched in. Whether you've graciously signed up to volunteer, taken part in the ringers challenge, donned your baking hats, or donated beautiful plants - each gesture has contributed immensely to the success of this event.

In addition, a special mention to our generous local companies, community groups, and individuals who have stepped forward to donate towards our annual fete. Your contributions have not only added vibrancy to our event but have also reinforced the spirit of community and generosity.

Highlights Not to Miss!

Games Galore: A variety of games will be sprinkled throughout the evening to keep our young ones engaged and entertained such as Footy Toss, Laser Tag and more.

Feast for All: Our BBQ and Kitchen stand ready to satiate your taste buds. Come hungry and leave with a happy heart (and tummy!).

Cheers to the Evening: Raise a glass at our bar which will be serving beer on tap for those looking to enjoy a chilled brew.

Dodger Raffles: With a plethora of great prizes, this is a segment you won't want to miss!

The Basalt Battle Ringers Challenge: With a whopping prize of $2500, the challenge is heating up. For those who haven’t secured their registrations, there’s still time.

$2500 Mega Raffle Draw: Double the fun and double the excitement with yet another chance to win big! Tickets are still available for this draw, so contact the school today. Only 100 Tickets to be sold in total.

I cannot wait to see how thrilling and rewarding it is to see our community come together for events like these.

Looking forward to sharing the laughter, joy, and memories with each one of you this week. See you there!

God Bless,

Scott Murray
