Flashback to an infinite supply of Easter eggs, buns with signature cross facelifts, and a bunny yet to deliver chocolate.

At this time, Shepparton Christian College held its school fete on Wednesday, March 27, before the Easter weekend.

From mechanical bull rides to a ‘Splatt the Person’ stall, entertainment aplenty beckoned students and their families.

The local CFA and Ambulance Victoria were also at the scene, taking attendees on a behind-the-scenes look into their life-saving world.

As vital as the services themselves, the staple of the season (and the fete) was, of course, the chocolate.

Needless to say, Easter eggs went down the hatch.

The News photographer Rechelle Zammit was behind the lens to capture the day.
