A jolly good time

Santa Claus spread festive joy to Casey Childcare and Kindergarten students at their recent Christmas party.
The jolly man in red was the special guest at the centre’s 8 December celebrations, which united about 150 of the local community for a night of fun.
Heather from Kiddliwinks music ran a festive themed music time where children belted out Christmas carols, a staff karaoke number was a hit and the sausage sizzle stirred everyone’s appetite.
Centre manager Debbie Porter said it was a “wonderful” end to the year.
“The rain had cleared and families enjoyed a great time chatting, connecting with other parents, and enjoying their children’s special night,” Ms Porter said.
The children all left the celebrations with a Christmas present from Santa Claus.
