Donations sought for Spring Fair 2019

08/05/2019/in Community Notices, Parents and Friends Association /by Yvette

Dear school community

Could you donate something to our Spring Fair raffle or silent auction?

We know September and the Spring Fair are still a fair way off! But now’s the time for Class 3 to get organised for the raffle and silent auction.

If you have a business and would like to donate an item or a voucher for a service, we would be very grateful. We’ll also be seeking donations for the produce stall in due course, so if you are a grower and would like to donate to the produce stall, please let us know. (The produce stall will have fruit and veggies, other produce, plants and seedlings).

Or perhaps you have a local business you really value who you’d like to suggest that we approach (please don’t approach them on our behalf in case we have already done so!)

Together, let’s make this year’s Fair a bountiful and glorious celebration of Spring.

Please contact Sarah on sarah@sarah-armstrong.com or Lesa on lesaparker@gmail.com

Many thanks

Spring Fair committee
