Kids of all ages made great use of the jumping castles, slides, horse rides, dodgem cars, and the much-anticipated dunking machine.
As promised, Father Andrew Grace graced the seat of the dunking machine to let the children take the change of plunging him into the “freezing” water.
“I got dunked about ten times… and the water was freezing but it’s all for a good cause and a lot of fun. Go Manly!” he said.
Chase O’Grady was the lucky last to dunk him, and was super thrilled he succeeded when others didn’t.
“I was so excited to dunk father grace, because I haven’t dunked him before,” Chase said.
Food, music and raffles were also highlights of the day, and one of the dedicated organisers Anna Rossetto was thrilled with the communities response.

“We have excellent attendance, amazing weather and an awesome atmosphere, we couldn’t be happier,” she said.
All proceeds from the day will go towards the Parish.
