✨ THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE DAY! ✨

What an amazing Twilight Fair we had! A huge thank you to all our wonderful volunteers, parents, sponsors, supporters, and visitors for making our inaugural Twilight Fair such a success. The buzz, the colour, the energy, and the fun around the school were everything we hoped for — and more!

Our goals were community and connection, and thanks to you, we absolutely achieved them. As an added bonus, together we raised valuable funds that will go towards upgrading playground equipment for our tamariki. We couldn’t have done it without every single person who contributed — setting up, packing down, running stalls, donating items, painting faces, decorating hair, performing, or simply coming along to enjoy the day.

📸 Fair photos are coming soon.

Our final total is still being calculated, and we’ll share the grand total and photos in this week’s school newsletter.

FEEDBACK:
We’d love your feedback so we can make next year’s fair even better. Please share your thoughts or suggestions below, or email us at [email protected].

Thank you again for being part of the day.
