St. Jerome’s Carnival

“We’re absolutely thrilled; it’s been one of our biggest turnouts ever,” said Principal Allan Chase. “We’d like to thank the families that donated toys, the parents who came in to support it, the Grade 10’s and their parents for the cakes for the cake walk, and the Grade 10’s and all of the other students for helping work the booths.

Grade 10 student, Rhyan Selte, helped with the Ring Toss and said, “I used to look forward to this event when I was little, and now I liked working with the children.”

Children had a lot of fun and noted that a couple of their favourite games were the Tasmanian Toss and the Senior Hoopla.

Overall, children, parents and grandparents enjoyed the colourful show of events, and spent the evening socializing and enjoying the activities, getting their face painted, or sampling snacks in the tea room.
