Spring Fair

Welcome back to Term Four.

This term is going to be super busy but also super exciting because of the Spring Fair on Sunday November 17th.

I would like to acknowledge the work of the Spring Fair Committee and encourage families to support them in any way they can.

The Spring Fair is the major fundraiser for the school and this year will go towards the continued development of our facilities.

For those families new to the school, the Spring Fair is held every second year and is the school's major fundraiser.  It is an opportunity for the community to come together and have a fun day.  The Spring Fair does rely on the willingness of parents to support with donations and time.

The Spring Fair Committee have put calls out for items to assist with some of the stalls and we thank everyone who has contributed by donating second hand children's books and toys, bottles of wine, jars of goodies, chocolates, etc.

How Can You Help?

We are now in the process of having families sign up to volunteer on a stall.  As much as the Spring Fair Committee has everything organised, the event can't succeed without the willingness of the whole community to assist on the actual day.  Which stall have you signed up to?

Sign up links are in the attached document

Stalls

Each class has had a stall assigned to them.  Please assist your Class Coordinator by signing up for a shift.  We know that some stalls are going to require more assistance than others.  If you class stall doesn't need you, please consider assisting other classes.

Ride Tickets

We will be selling ride tickets before the Fair both via an online portal and at the school. 

Ride tickets are $45 if purchased before the Fair and $50 on the day of the Fair.  This year we have included a Toddler Junior Ride Ticket for $20.

Ride Ticket sales will start next Monday (21st October).  Please watch COMPASS for more information.

Raffle

We have an amazing raffle running as part of the Fair including some brilliant prizes including: a fridge, TV, laptop, TeePee Party, speaker, pilates vouchers, Alba Spa voucher, Fuca Skin Care pack, Riccis Biscuit hamper

Each student will bring a book of tickets home for families to sell.  The tickets are $10 each. We ask that you send your sold and unsold tickets and money back to the school by Friday 8th November.

Post Cards

Students will be wriing a postcard to a family member of friend of the family inviting them to the Spring Fair.  If this is someone your child is unlikely to see before the Fair, please send a stamp and the address to school with your child and we will post it for them.

Malvern's Got Talent

The Performing Arts Staff and Captain are busy auditioning students to participate in the Malvern's Got Talent show at the Fair.  We hope you enjoy the show on the day!

Student Art Show

The Visual Arts staff have organised a wonderful display of our students' art work, which will be on display in the Rec Centre on Fair Day.  Please come and view their work and bid on the student art that is up for Silent Auction.
