St Mary’s Primary School Echuca celebrated older generations on Friday, October 24, inviting students’ grandparents and special people to its campus.

The annual Celebration of Grandparents began with a liturgy on the school oval before attendees joined in a rotation of activities that brought families together.

A social lunch was organised to help the guests connect with each other and form new friendships, with some families donating food for the affair.

The school is hosting its annual fete from 3.30pm to 7.30pm on Friday, November 7, with rides, market stalls, an animal farm, games and more planned.
