 Some of the stalls

Our school held a ‘trash and treasure’ day, one week ago. As there were many ‘treasures’ Our principal cooks the bbqstored under the school eg unused chairs, tables, desks, timber etc, it was decided to sell this in order to add funds to the parents club and enable special project requests from staff, to be funded. Various stalls were set up, including the popular cakes and produce stall conducted by the parents club. Outside vendors also came in selling ‘trash’, plants and flowers. A spinning wheel proved to be very popular and a great money spinner.

Our principal, with two other capable parents provided a  bbq for lunchtime appetities and the country style devonshire teas, comprising home made scones and jam also proved  popular. Overall, it was a great day, the sun shone and money was raised.
