Spooky fun at St Joseph’s Halloween Disco

THE Gloucester community came out in full force for the St Joseph’s Primary School Spooky Disco on Saturday, 1 November, with children and adults alike dressed in their best Halloween costumes.

Over 100 people attended, ready to dance the night away and enjoy a night of frightful fun.

Prizes were awarded for Best Dressed in the child, adult, and group categories, with Harry Potter, Dracula’s Bride, and The Beekeeper and her Killer Bees taking out top honours.

Lucky door prizes and dance-off awards added to the excitement throughout the night.

Rotary once again showed their support by running the BBQ and helping judge the costume winners.

“The St Joseph’s school community is incredibly grateful for the continued generosity and support from both Rotary and local businesses that made the night such a success,” said parent Deborah Sheely.

“A huge thank you to Rotary, Avon Valley Meats, Forest of Play, Batter and Dough, Killer Graffix, Faull’s Ridge Wines, and Arko Petroleum for their donations and community spirit.”

Next up, St Joseph’s is holding their Big Summer Raffle.

Prizes include a three-month family pool pass, two nights camping at The Steps, Barrington, a Family Mountain Maid Gold Mine Tour, and one large load of laundry from the laundromat (washed, dried, and folded).

Tickets are just $5 each and available for purchase at McGrath’s or the St Joseph’s Primary School office.

“Don’t miss your chance to support a great local school and win a prize for the whole family!”
