🎄✨ Brisbane Children’s Christmas Party – Creating Christmas Magic for Kids Who Need It Most!✨🎄

At Cherie’s Country Care, supporting the community is at the heart of what we do. Each year we proudly take part in the Brisbane Children’s Christmas Party - an incredible event designed especially for children who are living with serious illnesses, disabilities, or who are facing other challenges in life.

This wonderful event brings together thousands of deserving kids for a day of pure joy! The party includes:

🎅 Visits and photos with Santa
🎁 Gifts for every child
🎡 Carnival rides and amusements
✨ Live entertainment and interactive shows
🍭 Food, treats, and plenty of festive surprises

It’s a chance for families to take a break, connect with others, and enjoy a day where everything is taken care of - completely free for the families who attend.

Each year, we sponsor a child to be put forward, and this year we nominated a beautiful little girl. We’re thrilled to share that she was selected! She recently attended one of the parties and had an absolute ball— smiling, playing, and soaking up all the Christmas magic the event is known for. 💛

If you’d like to learn more about the Brisbane Children’s Christmas Party — what it’s all about, who it supports, or how you or your business can get involved — you can visit the event organisers online to explore opportunities for:

⭐ Sponsorship
🤝 Volunteering
🎁 Donating gifts
💛 Supporting families directly

🎁 Your involvement helps create unforgettable Christmas memories for children who truly deserve a day of happiness.
