A sponsorship opportunity for local business

The Ironside State School P&C is pleased to offer local businesses a range of sponsorship opportunities for our major fundraising initiative, the 2026 Ironside Spring Fair, held on Saturday 7 November 2026.

With around 900 students at our school the buzz has already started. Held only every two years, the fair is a significant event for the school and local community and draws strong crowds — so we are confident we can match a package to your marketing budget while raising funds for our school.

We are committed to running a safe community event and to making sure your contribution delivers tangible returns.

Our school

Ironside State School, centrally located in St Lucia, was established in 1870 and enjoys a reputation for academic and music excellence. Around 900 students from Prep to Year 6 attend, reflecting a highly multicultural community with families from over 40 nationalities.

Monies raised will go towards building works programs and other initiatives that improve and expand student experiences.
