What Is Family Fun Day?
A free community celebration we hold every May. Started in 2018. Now a tradition our community loves.
Families come together. Children play. Parents connect. Community organisations share information. Everyone celebrates being part of Pooraka.
Our 2024 event had a Star Wars theme. 600 people came. We took a break in 2025 for organisational changes. Family Fun Day returns in May 2026.
