Stella Maris Catholic Primary is inviting the community to have fun at the school’s Family Fun Day on Saturday, February 22.
The free event, which raises funds for much-needed improvements to the school grounds and started 13 years ago when the school was little more than red clay, has blossomed into a much anticipated event on the calendar.
Rides and games for kids of all ages, live music and stage shows for entertainment, food trucks, market stalls will be among the attractions.
Adults will also have access to ‘The Stella Lounge,’ a relaxing space to enjoy an Aperol spritz or a boutique beverage.
Principal Stephen Harrison explained what the day meant to the school and wider community.
“The Family Fun Day is more than just a fundraiser — it’s a celebration of the incredible skills, generosity, and teamwork within our school community,” he said.
“Run entirely by volunteers and school staff, this event is a true testament to the Stella Maris culture.”
He said there were two great ways for the community to get involved.
“Join us on the day. Bring your family and friends to enjoy the positive energy and vibrant atmosphere of our wonderful Point Cook community.
“Support the cause – every dollar spent helps us plant more trees and create more play spaces for our children.”
Above all, Mr Harrison said the community is what makes the event special.
“Without a doubt, it’s the people. Our school is made up of a wonderfully diverse group of families who come together, share their talents, and volunteer their time to create something truly special.”
