SMPS Easter Raffle - 8th April
SMPS is holding an Easter raffle fundraiser!
💵 Cost: Tickets cost $1 each.
🎁 Prizes: There will be a variety of chocolate Easter prizes on offer. Some, as in the photos above, are on display in the SMPS foyer.
🍫Donations: Our raffle prizes are made up of generous donations from our wonderful SMPS community. If you are able, please purchase one egg, two eggs, or a packet of eggs and hand them in to the SMPS office by 31 March. They will all be put together to make up some fantastic prizes! All donations are greatly appreciated. We're sorry, we are unable to accept home-made treats. Only store bought products please.
🎯 Drawn: The raffle will be drawn on the last day of term, Friday 8 April, 2022.
🎟 Raffle tickets: Shortly, each student will receive an envelope with ten SMPS Easter raffle tickets inside. We are asking students to please sell as many as they can. Cash only. All money raised will go to help fund the playground line markings. Whether you sell one ticket or all ten, every dollar raised will help. Thank you for your support! And good luck!
💌 Returning raffle ticket stubs and money raised:
The stubs for the raffle tickets you have sold, and the money raised, can be returned on Monday 4 - Thursday 7 April, between 8.30am - 9am, at the main school gates. Look for the Family & Friends (FAF) team members wearing rabbit ears!
The FAF will also visit OSH at 8.30am on each of these days to collect tickets from students there.
🌺🧡 The FAF would like to say a big thank you to the one-of-a-kind, very helpful Miss Emma in the office, who has been busy helping us organise things for the raffle. 💐 Thank you!!
