Beaumaris North Primary School
Footy, families & Fundraising What a day!
In early September, more than 25 BNPS dads dusted off their boots and proudly represented our school at the Bayside Dads Footy Day — a family-friendly fundraiser bringing together six local primary schools.
The day kicked off with BNPS taking on Beaumaris Primary School in the hotly anticipated ‘Battle of the Concourse’ — the first of three games.
There were big marks, determined tackles and, inevitably, a few sore bodies along the way. Despite a gutsy effort from our dads the injuries took their toll, and Beaumaris Primary narrowly claimed the win.
Team captain and Father’s Activity Club committee member Daniel Andersen summed up the day: “It was a fantastic opportunity to bring together so many of our school dads and families for some good-natured competition, while also raising funds for the school. A huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported us.”
Congratulations to dad Travis Kelly who was awarded best on ground for BNPS and a special thank you to superstar BNPS mum Alex Mori (MCC all-time leading goal kicker) who coached our team on the day.
Off the field, a fantastic turnout of BNPS families enjoyed the BBQ, DJ, jumping castle and plenty of great company. Best of all, the event raised an impressive $1,400 for each school.
After such a brilliant day, we’re already looking forward to making the 2027 event even bigger and better. A huge thank you to the BNPS Father’s Activity Club for coordinating the day — and to everyone who played, cheered and joined the fun!
