Over 3,000 children from all over South East Queensland attended Queensland’s largest Christmas party for children that struggle with serious illnesses, special needs, disabilities or suffer from unique challenges in their life.
The children were treated to rides and entertainment, loads of yummy treats and new and exciting experiences including interacting with the police horses and puppies. They were also able to climb aboard the police inflatable boat, sit on a police motorcycle, and get behind the wheel of a police car.
The highlight of the day for the children was meeting Santa and being treated to Santa’s Toy Room, where they each received some fantastic presents to take home.
We’d like to thank the organisers of this wonderful event.
