We need your pre-loved clothes and books!
This year we will be holding a pre-loved clothes stall and a pre-loved book stall at the Carlsruhe Country Fair.
We are asking families to help by donating 2nd hand clothes and 2nd hand books. Please only donate your best items so we are not overloaded. Being a school event, any 2nd hand school uniforms are welcome. Donations can be dropped off to the collection box outside the school office.
If you would like to help with the book stall in any way please call Michelle Toose on 0498 150 254 or if you would like to help with the clothes stall please call Michelle Wearne on 0409 568 873.
Thank you for your help and support! We look forward to seeing you all at the fair!
CREATIVE GENIUS REQUIRED
Are you an artist?
Even better, a multimedia artist?
Put down your paint brush, clay and miscellaneous materials and help us design a GIANT mixed-media mural to advertise the Carlsruhe Country Fair.
Say what?
We want to create a mixed-media mural out of foraged natural materials and bunting to go across the giant wire fence at the front of the school... we just need one someone to design it. We’ll organise a team to do the rest.
Contact Zali on 0420685258 if you can help.
LUCKY JAR DONATIONS
We would like to ask students to create some Lucky Jars for the Carlsruhe Fair. Perhaps a rainy day activity for the school holidays?! The jars will be collected at school and then sold at the Carlsruhe Fair for a few dollars.
To create a Lucky Jar, simply recycle any empty jar from home, big or small. Make sure it is clean, dry and doesn't smell. Then fill it up with fun, inexpensive, non-perishable goodies - it's that easy! Most people will have a range of small toys or nic nacs that they don't use anymore which could fit neatly in a jar. Some suggestions are pencils, lego, ribbons, craft items, buttons, marbles, bubbles, balloons, footy cards, novelty erasers, mini toys, stickers, whistles, action figures, matchbox cars or anything else you can think of. You decide!
Each classroom will have it's own collection box so bring the jars along to class. Thank you for your support and have fun and be creative!!
