Clairvaux Carnivale News
What a fantastic day with our Clairvaux families and the community. We had over 4,200 people through the gates, and lots of excited children when they saw the activities and rides on offer. It did get hot, but the weather didn’t stop the attendees from supporting the school in every way they could.
With plenty of entertainment, the range of food, games, the baking competition, book sale, crafts and stalls, there was a lot of activity happening at once.
Although the total funds raised are still being calculated, Carnivale 2024 has already exceeded the previous fundraising totals! These funds will be used for future Clairvaux playground updates.
There are so many people and businesses to thank for contributing to the event.
To all our school families who donated, volunteered, attended on the day, and purchased items, thank you. Thank you for helping to spread the word about the event as well.
To the Clairvaux staff, thank you for helping on the day and in the lead up to the event.
To our donors and sponsors, the event would not be possible to run without your support.
Thanks to our Master of Ceremonies, Grant Burrows, and our entertainers including the Clairvaux Choir, Cheer Geelong, Belmont High Bands and Jacinta Bolling on piano.
To the activity providers on the day including Kelly Sports, Wild Hearts Play Co, Rainbow Wishes, St Bernard’s Playgroup and Coerver Coaching, thanks for engaging our children.
To the organisations that provided services on the day we say thank you, St John Ambulance, Australian Breastfeeding Association, Barwon Water, Barwon Security, Geelong ATMs, emergency services - Victoria Police and the CFA.
Lastly, a special thanks to the Clairvaux Carnivale Committee members who volunteered all year to bring this event to life.
In talking to students who have graduated from Clairvaux, they often talk about Carnivale as a highlight of their school years. We hope the current students remember this Carnivale in years to come.
