The Educate Together Organisation hold their annual fundraising campaign on Feb 27th. Our school will host a Mad Head Day. Children can don mad hats or other headgear, or style their own locks in a crazy manner. Prizes for the best efforts. There will be a coin collection on the day. All proceeds to go to Educate Together.
The PTA are planning to produce a school cook book by end of year. This would incorporate favourite recipes from all over the world as presented by the students. Any parents interested in helping out just let any of the comittee know. The finished product will be on sale to all parents. Any profits raised will go to the school.
We are also looking into getting a photographer to the school for individual and class photos. We do need an idea of numbers interested before we can confirm a booking and negotiate a good deal. We’ll send home a slip with children and would greatly appreciate if you could let us know your interest.
Finally the PTA will soon start organising a final term grand event. This might be a cake sale, a raffle, a family sports day, a family summer picnic, or a summer fete. These events can be very successful in terms of fund raising and getting people together. However they can also be labour intensive and need support from the school community to be successful.
If anyone has any ideas on what could work best, or would like to come along and join us to help organise this event to ensure its success, it would be greatly appreciated..
Remember, it’s your school. You can make a difference.
