Family movie night success
Thank you to all the families that joined us for our family movie night. It was a wonderful night, the children had a blast, (we did too!) It was lovely to see everyone socialising outside of the school grounds.
We sold 260 movie tickets and together with the raffle, raised a whopping $3,800. All of which is going straight back into the school to directly help the children. Thank you to everyone for your efforts.
Fundraising this incredible amount isn’t possible without the help of our sponsors. Thank you to the businesses listed below for your amazing donations, I strongly encourage everyone to check out the spectacular products they offer.
