Join us for a day of connection, creativity and celebration as the much-loved Glenaeon Family Fair returns to Sydney’s lower north shore on Saturday 14 November 2026. From 10am to 4pm, Glenaeon’s beautiful leafy campus in Castlecrag will open its gates to families, friends and neighbours for a vibrant day of community and shared experience.
At its heart, the Glenaeon Family Fair is a celebration of belonging. It offers an opportunity to step away from the pace of everyday life, reconnect with one another, and experience the warmth, creativity and sense of community that are central to the Glenaeon spirit. Created with care by parents, students, staff and friends of the school, the Fair reflects the collaborative ethos of Steiner education, bringing people together through hands-on activities, live music and performances, wholesome food, artisan stalls and meaningful encounters.
More than a community event, the Glenaeon Family Fair is a gathering that honours the joy of coming together, fostering connections across generations and creating lasting memories for all who attend.
