Bell Primary School Fete – A Wonderful Day of Community and Celebration

What an incredible day we had at this year’s Bell Primary School Fete! Thanks to the amazing support of our school community, we are thrilled to share that we raised an outstanding $46,000 on the day.

From the moment the gates opened, the atmosphere was buzzing with excitement. Families, friends, students and staff came together to enjoy the rides, stalls, entertainment and delicious food, creating a vibrant and memorable day for everyone involved.

This event simply would not have been possible without the dedication and generosity of so many people. A heartfelt thank you to our volunteers, staff, sponsors, stallholders and performers who gave their time, energy and resources to make the fete such a success. Your efforts truly made a difference.

To our Bell Primary families and wider community - thank you for showing up, supporting the event and helping us create such a special day. It’s this strong sense of community that makes Bell Primary such a wonderful place.

We also extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who contributed behind the scenes in the lead-up to the fete. A special thank you to the local businesses and generous bidders who supported our fundraising efforts. We are incredibly grateful for your contributions, and also acknowledge the efforts of those who helped secure these donations in the months leading up to the event, including below a list of our silent auction supporters.

We hope the below video highlights brings back some wonderful memories:
