Fundraising
Update
Since September 2009
the Pre-School has raised £704
which will increase to £1,013 when matched by Vodafone under
their matched
fundraising scheme. This will go a long
way to purchasing new and replacing old equipment for the pre-school. However there is always more needed and your
help and support as always is much appreciated.
Cake Sale 12 February 2010.
Our first fundraising
event of this term is a cake
sale outside the Pre-School at 2.45 and then Falkland School gates at
3.15pm on
the Friday 12th February.
These events are always popular with the school children and their
families so
can we please ask all you parents for cake donations. Cakes can be
large or
small as we can sell them individually (fairy cakes etc), in batches or
as
large whole cakes.
Volunteers are also needed to help on the stalls from 2.45pm
until approximately 3.45pm. Please put your name on the notice board if
you are
able to supply cakes and/or help on the day. Cakes should be brought to
Pre-School on Thursday 11th and Friday 12th please.
Future Events
We aim to do at least 3
fundraising events a term and
this term hope to hold another shopping
event during March (confirmation will follow) and the Easter
Parade n Tuesday March 30th. Details
for these will be notified soon.
During the Summer term we are
planning a Dad’s Saturday, when Dad’s get
to
attend a session with their child or children and find out what goes on
at
Pre-School. This will be one Saturday in May. We will also be holding a
Garden Party/Fun Day to celebrate the
completion of the Pre-school out door play area. This will be on a
Saturday
afternoon in June or July. Confirmation
of the dates will be notified
shortly.
