School Fete

Or fair as we would call it in the States…this was a big production put on by Alaina’s school.  It was a great day full of fun rides, friends, cake stall, special treats, tombola (a raffle for prizes), music & dance performances, yummy food, showbags, shops, animals, and much more!

Unfortunately the fair was on the same day as a big election here (was not planned that way), which made for a lot more people, but that may have also helped the school in the fundraising department.

Kindifarm was there with a little petting farm set up for the kids

The fire brigade also showed up with a truck for the kids to check out

Love hearing bagpipes…have actually them a few times since living here….this was a band from a private boys school in Wahroonga

I secretly love when my girls are both feeling a little timid and cling to each other for comfort!

Poor Hallie didn’t get to ride any rides, so she settled for watching

I couldn’t believe how fast this ride spun the kids around…made me sick to watch, but they loved it…guess that my sign that I’m getting old!

After the girls went home, I had to come back to work in one of the stalls…I was happy though to find a wine tasting tent to enjoy before my scheduled shift! Smile
