STUDENTS at St Joseph's Primary geared up for footy finals with everyone in their team colours.

The day was filled to the brim with exciting activity including a long lunch, AFL themed inside activities and a footy clinic.

The lunch was a family affair with parents and grandparents invited to come along and eat delicious hot dogs and drink fruit boxes.

They used the occasion to help fundraise by allowing students to pay to vote for which teacher they wanted to take part in the Big Freeze.

All the money raised on the day went towards helping senior students attend and participate in the 2022 Energy Breakthrough Push Cart challenge in Maryborough in November.
