Integrity-being honest and fair<br />
Responsibility-being responsible for your actions & words<br />

Fundraising Target<br />
This year the fundraising committee decided to set a goal to<br />
aim for. After consulting with teachers a decision was made<br />
to try and raise enough money to purchase an Apple iPad for<br />
each class. The graphic below will be displayed at the<br />
school to let everyone know how we are going. So far<br />
approximately $900 dollars has been raised from our Easter<br />
Egg Competition, Cake Stall and Mother’s Day Raffle. A<br />
number of fundraising activities have been planned for the<br />
rest of the year to help us reach this goal including:<br />
A Chocolate Drive at the end of this term.<br />
A Pie Drive<br />
A Harness Racing Night on 1 st October<br />
A Car Boot Sale<br />
Voting Day Food Stalls<br />
Cake Stalls (One per Term)<br />
Caledonian Raffles once per month<br />
We would like to thank everyone for their support in helping<br />
us to reach our goal.
