Cartoon of the week – 31 May 2023

The Echo loves your letters and is proud to provide a community forum on the issues that matter most to our readers and the people of the NSW north coast. So don’t be a passive reader, send us your epistles.

Brunswick Heads Public School managed to coax some creatures of the night out in broad daylight to help raise funds at its annual Fairtastic Halloween event on Saturday (October 29).

And many of the region’s denizens left no tombstone unturned in their effort to shock and amaze with make-up and outfits (and in at least one case a well-themed tattoo).

Staff took to Facebook to pronounce it ‘the most fun Fairtastic ever’ and extended special thanks to the Brunswick Picture House, which raised almost $500 through their popcorn cart alone, as well as the local Lions and Rotary groups for the record breaking efforts on their BBQ and curry stalls.
