Many hands make light work, let’s all do a little so together we can achieve a lot!
We need you!
Each class has been allocated a stall or group of stalls (where there is less assistance required per stall). As the saying goes, many hands make light work, so if we have enough volunteers, it means that each family will only need to give at least 30 min of their time, with plenty of time spare to watch their child’s performance and to take in all the fete has on offer.
Stall Convenors have been busy preparing for the Fete, and need volunteers to help on the big day. Not sure what's involved? Check out the What to Expect? section at the bottom of this page.

What to expect?
Artisan Markets
Come and join us inside at the Artisan Market. If you can sell something, then you're the person for us!
All the items are made and ready for purchase, prices will be clearly marked so you will only be collecting sales via cash or eftpos.
So come inside and enjoy the calm while you get to know your Joey's community.
Convenor: Melissa Fidge who will provide assistance throughout the day.
Bake & Sweet Stall
The hard work of baking and set up has all been done. We just require half an hour (or an hour if you can spare it) of your time to help collect the money from the sales of our home-made treats!
We don’t require you to have any special skills or talents, just bring a smile and be ready to have a great time. If adding up isn’t your thing, feel free to use your phone or we will have a calculator or two available.
We are lucky to have a few convenors, so you will not be left alone – there will always be someone to ask a question of. It’s a fun and rewarding day in the Bake & Sweet Stall – we have a good vibe and there’s a steady stream of customers all day - so always someone to chat to.
We love showcasing what the Joey’s community can do – we have some talented bakers and sweet makers.
Convenors: Tracey Baker, Sharlene Lamari, Jacqulyn Forbes & Tracey Franks who will provide assistance throughout the day.
Curry Stall
DONT WORRY AND EAT CURRY - My name is Bijal.
My husband and I are pleased to support the fete by serving some delicious Indian food. I am a mother to two boys. Liam, is in year 4O and Neil, previous Joey's student, is in Year 11 at St Pats.
To ensure we are able to serve the amazing food, we would love your help on the day.
Manish (my husband) and I would be working behind the scenes and would love your help to manage front of the house.
Your responsibilities would be to take the order and payment and then serve the food we package. We will be serving Butter Chicken, Rice and Naan AND Chick Pea curry, Rice and Naan (Vegan, Vegetarian).
We typically start at 10:00am and are done by 2:00pm - our busy periods are around lunch time so volunteering around then would help us greatly.
Any help before and after is also welcome. Thank you for your assistance!
Convenor: Bijal Tiru who will provide assistance throughout the day.
Drinks Stall
The Drinks Stall is a super easy stall to help out on. All we do is sell the drinks.
Volunteers may be asked to help with selling drinks, shuttling under the year 5/6 classrooms for more drinks and/or ice and handling simple amounts of money while selling.
Depending on how busy we are at the time, maybe take a wheelbarrow of drinks out to the busy areas of the fete for sale, eg the big rides or the stalls away from the multimarked court.
That's it! So please if you can spare some time, sign up, we'd love your help on the day!
Convenors: Bernard and Jess MacNaught who will be there throughout the day for support.
Hot Foods
Volunteers will be asked to either flip burgers on the BBQ, hop on the deep fryer to cook dagwood dogs & hot chips or work the front counter to take orders. No previous experience required and full support will be provided all day to assist volunteers in cooking and selling the food.
Convenors: Renee & Dan Mitchell who will provide assistance throughout the day.
