Get Ready! The Ironside Spring Fair is Back for 2026! 

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that the countdown has officially begun! On Saturday, 7th November 2026, the Ironside Spring Fair returns to transform our school grounds into a vibrant hub of fun, food, and community spirit.

As many of you know, this spectacular event only happens every two years, making it a truly special date on the St Lucia calendar. This year is set to be our biggest yet, showcasing the incredible talent of our students and the unstoppable spirit of our community. From dazzling entertainment and activities to a massive array of stalls, it is going to be an unforgettable day!

Join the Planning Team: We Need Your Hands and Minds!

The success of a Fair this size hinges on a dedicated team of organisers. Right now we are looking for volunteers to help with the coordination and behind-the-scenes planning.If you have a knack for logistics, enjoy coordinating events, or simply want to help shape how the Fair looks this year, we would love to have you on the team.

We are currently inviting local businesses to become official supporters of the 2026 Fair. This is a fantastic way to connect with our school community of over 900 families while supporting a great cause.If you know a local business who might be interested in supporting the fair please reach out!

Let’s come together to make the 2026 Ironside Spring Fair the best one yet! 

A Heartfelt Thank You: Our Mother's Day Stall Success 

A massive thank you to all the wonderful volunteers and helpers who gave their time to make this year’s Mother’s Day stall such a triumph. Particular thanks to the organising team of Sahar, Fee, Ellie, Gita, and Charlotte! 

It was truly priceless to watch the students put so much care and deep thought into choosing the perfect gifts. Seeing them carefully work out their budgets while their faces lit up with excitement was a highlight for everyone involved.

We couldn't have done it without your energy and coordination. To all the mothers, grandmothers, and carers in our community, we hope you had a fantastic day and enjoyed your special surprises!

P&C Executive Team 

We are still seeking nominations for our Executive Committee.

With our current executive team departing, it is vital that these roles are filled to ensure the continued operation of our most valued school services. Without a committee, the P&C cannot legally operate, which puts the future of the tuckshop, uniform shop, and OSHC at risk.

Positions available:

• President: Leading the team and representing our community.
• Secretary: Organising meetings and managing correspondence.
• Treasurer: Oversight of P&C finances and budgeting.
• Vice Presidents: Focused on Fundraising or OSHC.

You don't need to be an expert to join - just a parent or carer who cares about our school! A comprehensive handover will be provided to all new members to ensure you feel supported and confident in your role.

If you have questions or would like to nominate, please contact the current P&C Secretary (secretary@ironsidepandc.org.au)

Thanks,

Phoebe, Matt and Michael
