Once again we would like to take a moment to say a huge thank you to all of our amazing sponsors and community partners.

Putting on an event of this size takes an incredible amount of support, and the generosity of our sponsors has helped us bring together a fantastic day for our school and wider community.

We encourage our families to support the businesses and organisations that support our school community. Please take a moment to check out our sponsors and let them know we appreciate their support!

From all of us at the Toowong State School P&C, thank you!

A huge thank you to the Rotary Club Toowong for supporting our Hands & Hearts Fair and taking on the very important job of running our BBQ!
