"I am extremely proud of the event - it was a massive success and I enjoyed working as Event Manager for such a wonderful event.

I managed over 150 staff on the day and worked with various teams to bring the event to life!" ~ Lesley Sims

St Luke's Anglican School is celebrated its 25th anniversary. My role was to create and deliver a grand 25th anniversary event.

We opened up the school to the whole Bundaberg community for the inaugural St Luke's Community Fair. It was a huge success with thousands of people taking part in the celebrations.

We were pleased to welcome students, families, staff, alumni, volunteers, friends and the wider community to the school for such a wonderful occasion. The event was a hive of activity with amusement rides, Old McDonald's Farm, Alumni sporting matches, Laser Skirmish, a huge line up of entertainment and fun activities. We hosted 40 food vendors, local businesses and charity organisations at the Community Fair.

This event has delivered on the school's commitment to foster a 'connected community'. Earlier that year the school published Our Future: Strategic Priorities 2019 - 2022 and this event delivered on those strategic priorities.

Community Feedback:

"On behalf of the School Council, I would like to commend you all on an amazing job with celebrating the 25th anniversary of St Luke’s Anglican School in Bundaberg. This golden opportunity to showcase our beautiful school to the community was utilised extremely well.?It was a very good move to invite and include members of the Bundaberg Community to participate in several opportunities on our campus. The atmosphere was amazing and it was lovely to see so many past parents and students attending and watching the different games. Great variety of food stalls and other entertainment!"
