Oatley West Public School Community Festival
Mr MARK COURE (Oatley) (13:37:17):
In October I had the privilege of attending Oatley West Public School's Community Festival, which was well attended by many local residents in the St George area. This was the thirty-seventh year that Oatley West Public School hosted the major fundraising event and the seventieth birthday of the school. I thank the family, friends and community groups who volunteered their time generously to host a great weekend for families. The parent-organised festival is a testament to the close network of friends and families who create an inviting environment to bring the community together. I acknowledge sponsors such as Ray White, Edmonds and Greer, Abode Renovations, Paul Doran Framing, and other local businesses renowned in the community. The success of this long-lasting tradition is due to the festival's reputation for providing great food, fine wine, rides, live music and entertainment. I thank the many volunteers for the fantastic weekend and their commitment to serving our local community.
