FUNDRAISING FOR 2023

St Augustine’s has always had a great tradition for fundraising

Our obvious aim is to raise money for the school and to improve facilities for the students, however we also see fundraising as great opportunity to bring the school community together.

We’ve created the Parents Fundraising 2023 Calendar of Events, which you’ll see in today’s newsletter. You’ll recognise many of the activities from previous years but we’re also hoping to include more social events for parents and families, which have the double benefit of raising money. More details will be provided as we get closer to each fundraiser throughout the year, but our first events are:

• EASTER EGG RAFFLE: 

1st - Isaac 1/2 B

2nd - Ivy 1/2 B 

3rd - Gus 3/4 WS

4th - Annabelle 3/4 M

5th - Hayley 3/4 WS

6th - Sebastian 5/6 C

7th - Gisele 1/2 LM

8th - Daisy 3/4 M

9th - Matthew 1/2 B

10th - Aiden 5/6 C

This year, the Parents Fundraising and Social Committee wants to make it easier for more parents to be involved in our fundraising activities. We understand there are many mums and dads who would like to help out, but who might not be able to attend committee meetings. That’s why we’re including a new section in the newsletter that we’ll use to call for volunteers for various fundraising tasks. First up, we’re asking for donations for this year’s Easter egg raffle, as well as volunteers to wrap the raffle prizes, sell raffle tickets and work in the uniform shop. See the new ‘Parent Volunteers – How You Can Help’ section below for more details.

Thanks to everyone who has already expressed interest in supporting our fundraising efforts for 2023. We’re really excited about the year ahead.
