Fete News

Saturday 14 March 2020 (9am - 3pm)

Thanks in advance for your support in raising much- needed funds for PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT for our school!

Fete Raffle – 3 great prizes to be won!

Coming home tomorrow (with your eldest child) is a book of 10 raffle tickets ($2 each) for you to buy or sell to friends, family, neighbours and work colleagues. All ticket butts and correct monies must be returned to the Office by Friday 13 March.

Payment can be made using Qkr > School Events, however the ticket butts MUST be returned to the Office to be included in the draw. Additional books are available from the Office – Fete dollars for the most tickets sold!!! Please return any tickets that you are unable to sell ASAP so that these may be sold by others. Good luck and thanks in advance for your generous support!

Grade Donations: Chocolate & Lollies (17 - 21 February)

Next week (17 - 21 February), students are kindly asked to bring in Chocolate (200g family blocks, any flavour) and bags of soft lollies e.g. snakes, party mix, jubes, bananas, raspberries, teeth & liquorice.

There is a ‘Grade Donations Box’ in each classroom and of course a special trophy & fruit tube vouchers for the class winner!

In response to parent feedback following the 2018 Fete, this year we are offering the option to make a one-off donation via Qkr > School Events > Fete Grade Donations which will still contribute to the weekly count for the class with the most donations. Thanking you in advance for your generous support!

Fete Ride Wristbands for unlimited rides at the Fete are now on sale for the Early Bird price of $35 until 4pm Friday 6 March. Purchase your tickets NOW via Qkr > School Events > Fete Ride Wristband - we can't wait to see the excitement on the kids' faces when they see that their oval has been transformed into their very own amusement park!

Fete Donation Drop Off – Sunday 16 February

Friendly reminder that a Fete Donation Drop Off Day is being held this Sunday (16 February) from 10am - 12pm. Please drop items off (see list below) at the under school entrance (oval end between the two main buildings). Please note that ALL second-hand items must be clean, saleable and in good working order - it is costly for the school to arrange disposal of unsaleable goods and takes up the precious time of our volunteers!

We are happy to collect anything apart from books, CD/DVDs and Trash & Treasure!

Toys and Games

Secondhand toys, bikes, scooters, board games etc. 

Clothing

We would love donations of brand name items of clothing and shoes of all sizes that are in excellent condition.

Other Items

We also need clean empty jars, filled jars for the ‘Lucky Jars’ stall and ribbon, twine & small plastic bags for the bake stall.

Thanks so much in advance and thanks also to everyone who have already generously donated items. Any leftover items will be given to an appropriate charity.

Please contact Bernadette Gooda (Stalls’ Director) at  bnpsfete.stalls@yahoo.com or 0497 522 499 for more information.
