Congratulations on an amazing Friday Market!
We raised $675.40 in total, which is a very impressive effort by any account, and particularly given the short notice this time.
Thank you to everyone who donated food. Having sampled more than was sensible (in the spirit of supporting the stall of course) I can say that the food was excellent and we managed to sell every single item.
Thank you as well to everyone who helped out with setting up the stall, selling and packing away at the end of the day. It is a wonderful way to support our learning community and we really appreciate all your hard work.
The money from each Friday Market stall is divided between the hosting learning community and the kitchen garden program. Half of the money raised each week goes to Margaret who runs our gardening sessions. The other half is for us to spend in our learning community on resources that we feel are important or that we can't find the money for in our school budget.
This semester we would like to put the money towards greening up the terrace (the bag and main entry area). This is a great space but it's being underutilized at the moment and we would love to make it a really stimulating and welcoming environment for the students so we can make the most of our classroom space. We will be asking for donations of plants and pots for the terrace soon, and scheduling a working bee. I will post information about specific items we are looking for in the next couple of days.
Thankyou again for all your hard work. We are extremely lucky to have such a supportive and enthusiastic parent body in our learning community.
