….last week’s Fun Fair was a huge success and of course a lot of fun
Last Saturday our school council hosted the school’s 15th annual Fun Fair. Over 500 wrist bands were sold which allowed the children unlimited access to the rides and carnival games. Hundreds of cakes were donated for the popular Cake Walk and this year the silent auction was brought back. Each class made an art object that was auctioned off and numerous businesses in the community donated products and services for the auction as well. It was a huge success.
The day was perfect. The weather cooperated. Parents and high school students volunteered their time to run events. Injuries were minor, a few scrapes that were quickly treated with bandaids. Music was provided by our OA and her husband. The police and fire department let the kids sit in the police car and the fire truck. At least this year the truck wasn’t called away in the middle of the fair. Dads manned the barbecues and the food was delicious.
The fair was easily attended by at least 1000 people. For every child at least one parent or significant adult accompanied them. Teachers came to show support and every year former students return. It’s always nice when they greet you and are sincerely happy to see you again. It was truly a day of fun, fun, fun……..
For some reason I really like that Picnic Table. I don’t know why. 🙂

Really?! The teacher must have been only a guide for the children’s inner artist.

Carol, I just admire the work you teachers do – the time and passion you put into your work. Fantastic – your gallery here, is just as colorful as you are to heart and soul. Love the rat race. I hope that you will get a fantastic summer .. full of color and joy too – and that you will have time for yourself.

I can’t wait for my summer break. Time at the cottage, walks on the beach, puttering in the garden, outdoor entertaining, etc. It can’t come soon enough.
