PFA Parents Night Out FUNdraiser

Oh what a night! On Saturday 8th October, PFA held the Parents Night Out FUNdraising social night at Gisborne Golf Club.  A staggering $7221.19 was made from the night! The support and generosity across the entire St Brigid's community was overwhelming.  Our students will benefit from upgrades to learning resources and amenities across the school. The function was an amazing success, with 99 guests attending. There were lucky door prizes and ticket draws, games of skill and of chance. Tickets sold out for the Last One Standing reverse raffle.  Thank you to Tim Thornton for your services in conducting the raffle draws on the night. There were spot prizes along the way, but the winning ticket (91) was held by David, with the grand prize of the incredible Weber Q Titanium BBQ accepted on his behalf by prize sponsor Dumith Danister of Work on Buckley.  The silent auctions were well supported with nearly two dozen prizes up for grabs thanks to many generous donors, including an Apple iPad with thanks to Draft Comps and the Russell family. Auctions totalled $3625 when the bidding ended. Miss Mel and Miss Annie offered their childminding services in an impromptu live auction, with the winning bid an impressive $650!  Thank you to Brendan S, Jess B and Tash S for your MC services across the night and to Sonia D and Bec B for sourcing the table arrangements. Bec also snapped photos through the night.  Thank you also to our front office stars Lisa and Theresa for your administration support. The PFA team put in many hours planning and seeking out sponsors and donors for the night.  Thank you ladies for all your efforts. 

When you are next shopping for goods or services, please support our donors and sponsors where you can.
