Held at the school last Friday, hundreds of community members turned out to not only enjoy the festivities on offer, but to find out if their name would be called out as part of the P&C's major fund-raiser for the the year.

This year the P&C gave away a new car, with hundreds of tickets sold along the way, before Leeton resident Frank Millemaggi had his name drawn from the barrel.

Parkview Public principal Travis Irvin described the event as fantastic.

"It was a great night with a really big crowd in attendance," Mr Irvin said.

"For the school it was pleasing to see so many people there enjoying themselves.

"I thought it was great the car went to a local resident. It was a very successful fund-raiser for the P&C."

The carnival is held on a biennial basis, with the school holding a fete in the year in between.

This year's event had everything from children's rides and ham and toy raffles to a barbecue, disco and a visit from the jolly man in red himself.

"I think we really catered for everyone this year," Mr Irvin said.

"It was a great night out for the family.

"Kids were able to enjoy all the activities on offer, while parents could sit back and enjoy the festivities."

The P&C will be putting funds raised back into the school and it is hoped some of the money will be used to purchase a new shade sail for play equipment.

Resources for students will also be purchased.
