A big thank you to our Fair Sponsors and those businesses who are supporting us by either donating their time on the day, raffle prizes or being part of the market. Please make sure you support them where possible and remember, IT IS NOT TOO LATE!  We are always looking for more Sponsors, market stall holders and raffle donations. Please email kristie.hocking@smcmeppingnth.catholic.edu.au if you want to get involved.

 

We have an extraordinary number of raffle prizes up for grabs from the following businesses and we extend a heartfelt thank you to them for their support. You can see from the brands that there really is a prize for everyone!

 

 

Last Friday and the Friday before we had our Frozen Fridays - students brought a gold coin donation and received a yummy Zooper Dooper to beat the heat and help to cover some of the costs of the Fair.

Volunteers Needed!

Our Fair will not be a successful day unless we have the support of our school families. Please consider volunteering, even if it is just for 1 hour. Help is needed for set up,  raffle ticket and ride ticket sales, wristband sales and collection, face painting sales, sausage sizzle cooking, sausage sizzle sales, SMCM Pre-loved Uniform Stall sales and pack up.

 

Every child who's parent volunteers on the day will receive 10 SMCM Farm Code Raffle Tickets to go in their Homegroup box!

 

Every family will receive one of these forms this week - please return the form to your homegroup teacher.
