Fairfield School seven-year-old's Aila McCoy, Nathan Wallis and Mereana Easton make bees wax wraps ahead of their popular annual gala next week.
The long range forecast looks promising for organisers of the Fairfield School gala.
The annual school fair has drawn huge crowds in recent years with thousands of people attracted to a large array of food stalls and activities that historically were held under blues skies.
Last year predicted rain fell
only as the last people were leaving. Organisers were hoping the weather gods would again be kind.
School teacher Sally Rollinson was part of a large organising committee and volunteer group whose input was essential to the running of the annual event, which was months in the planning.
Mrs Rollinson said school pupils were encouraged to have input in the gala and many were making saleable items, including bees wax wraps, in preparation.
