Volunteer
Each year group has been allocated a stall to run on the day and we are looking for parents and carers to help us.
Click here to sign up and volunteer your time.
What do we require right now? We're asking the whole community if you can help with the following donations:
The Jar Stall is looking for fun-filled jars (minimum value of $2) of edible goodies, toys, vouchers, makeup, or anything else you can imagine that is new and will sell.
The Jams and Preserves Stall is very much in need of our empty jars. Please provide clean jars of various sizes. Please ensure the labels are removed.
The Plant Stall would love your donations but needs them delivered just prior to Fair day - drop off will be outside Senior School Reception on Friday, 6 March.
The Cake Stall has boxes available and we hope every family will donate cakes, slices or biscuits. Cake boxes are available at both Senior and Junior Reception. They should be returned, filled with goodies, on the night before or morning of the Fair.
The Book Emporium would love to give your books a second chance of love. Please donate suitable/family friendly books in good condition (no damage or incomplete copies) that are suitable for resale (no magazines, encyclopaedias, or expired cookbooks). Literature for children and young adults would be highly valued. We would also appreciate new book donations or book gift vouchers.
- The Plate Smashing stall is seeking your old plates and mugs that are no longer required
The Fair will be accepting donations from Monday 9 February until Friday 6 March, 8:30am – 4:00pm.
The drop off zone is located at the Engagement Cottage (first cottage on the right of the main driveway). We will have tubs at the front door. Drop off anytime.
Small items can be left at Reception or the Junior School Office, or if large, please email Kate Allen on events@kws.nsw.edu.au
