What a fantastic fundraising year.  We have raised over $58 486. 

For the first time  we had 2 new events added to our fundraising calendar.

The Color Run was a terrific addition to our regular events and raised over $ 15 200. It created a terrific atmosphere and focus for our welcome picnic and all feedback was positive. For the first time we used an online program called "Raisely" which enabled parents and supporters to donate on line as well as using traditional cash donation methods.

We also has the Mother’s Day Luncheon at the Sandringham Yacht club where the audience was entertained by motivating and inspirational speakers with  a lovely lunch  and a really supportive  atmosphere.  The event raised over $5000.

What the money was spent on? The fundraising money supported the final payment for the stage, the addition of Bike racks, supporting the Maths and Literacy program, the Urban Agriculture garden program and supported a garden worker to come and work with the year 4 students in the garden. We also developed the new flag pole commemorative space and replaced the basketball rings and stands on the asphalt area. The STEM room has also has a new robotic program resourced through the fundraising budget.
