EXCITEMENT is mounting for this weekend’s Dennington’s Day Out.
Held at St John’s Primary School in Dennington on Sunday between 10am and 3pm, the day is sure to offer something for everyone.
The initiative, now in its twelfth year, is a major fundraiser for the school with plenty to see and do.
More than 3000 attendees are expected at Dennington’s Day Out this year, according to event co-ordinator Sarah Howley.
“The event encourages community partnerships with a large range of clubs and associations along with local community groups being involved,” she said.
“It is a fun day out for the whole family, with a huge range of rides for the children, including Super Scrambler, a mini ferris wheel, piggy train, fun factory, laser tag and inflatables, a vast array of food trucks catering for every taste, a pop-up shop market with great quality items, and many free activities for children to explore and play.”
As well as an animal farm, there will be an assortment of entertainment including dancers and singers, craft stations, a haunted house and face painting.
“There is something for everyone,” Mrs Howley said
“We have had support from many local businesses to allow the day to continue growing each year.
“We are also able to offer free entry which provides an opportunity for everyone to be involved and have some fun.”
Unlimited rides wristbands can be pre-purchased for $25 or on the day for $30, single ride tickets are $8 each.
Dennington’s Day Out will be held at St John’s Primary School at 263 Russell Street, Dennington.
