Sweet times at big fundraiser
Whangarei Primary School’s big annual fundraiser was a big hit at the weekend, but there were some changes from the traditional ArtoberFest, with a gala day and food fair held at the school. The Gala Day and food fair was held at the Whangarei Primary on Friday, with the evening event replacing the traditional Saturday ArtoberFest. There was still plenty of entertainment for the whole family, with hangi, Asian and South African foods, cake stall, sweets, sausage sizzle, money golf, teacher torture, horizontal bungy, haunted classroom, book and toy sale, quick-fire raffles, games, art and crafts, kapa haka and a talent show. Northern Advocate photographer John Stone went along for the fun too.
