Ingredients list
Do you know what we're fundraising for right now?
There are classrooms within the school that aren't connected by covered walkways. This means on rainy day, kids get wet when they need to go to the bathroom.
Children waiting for pick up in the 2-minute Drop off/Pick up Zone have no shelter - from the rain or blazing hot sun.
The P&C Shade Project was established to ensure that there is adequate cover between buildings and in waiting areas for our students. The initial goal was to reach $20,000 to make the shelter from the elements a reality. Updates from the infrastructure quotes mean we have to raise over 5 times that amount.
The Fundraising and Events arm of the P&C is responsible for planning and coordinating events including:
School disco
Stalls (Mothers' Day, Fathers' Day, Christmas)
Sausage sizzles
Colour explosion fun run
Multifest
Movie night
The success of each of these events relies heavily on support from the wider community of parents and carers at the school, and frequently, the fundraising and events officer will put the call out for willing and able helpers.
Upcoming events and call outs include:

ZERO AGAIN
We managed to eliminate plastic carry bags from the 2024 Mothers' Day stall too - another great eco-friendly result.
ZERO
That's how many single use plastic bags were handed out at the Christmas Stall this year. Woo Hoo!
Thanks to everyone who brought their own shopping bag and/or who re-gifted a gift bag for the kids to carry their purchases in.
We had a goal to eliminate plastic bags from the stall this year and with your help, we did it!
This effort to reduce waste was so successful we will make it a regular call out. Stay tuned into 2024.... 🙂
Even an hour of your time makes a huge difference. If you can help, contact our fundraising and events officer on algester.fundraising@gmail.com
In 2023 the P&C donated over $34k back to the school as a result of fundraising and event activities!
