Organized by the parents on the School Council, the event's purpose is to raise money for student activities – especially school trips and sports. In the course of the evening, over 200 visitors enjoyed the barbecue as they took part in various games and tried their luck at raffles, a 50/50 draw, and a silent auction. For the youngest, there was face-painting, plus cotton candy for kids of all ages. Once again, the proverbial good times were had by all. Photos by Melissa Armstrong
