Amesbury Summer Day Out 2013 (previously
called Amesbury Country Fair)
Saturday 23rd February, 2013: 11.00am – 2.00pm
The Amesbury
PPT would like to invite you to celebrate the end of summer with a day packed
full of fun and sun - hopefully! It will
be a perfect opportunity to welcome all the new and returning school families,
as well as bringing together the wider community.
Any profit will
go towards the fundraising for stage 2 of the playground development, which is
focussed on the design and build of playground facilities for the senior
students.
As with all
events, it takes people-power to make it successful. So this message is a LOUD shout
out for helpers of all kinds to contribute to making this a great day out for
all! Anything you can do will make a big
difference and will be greatly appreciated.
Below is a list of things we need help with.
Baking – Due to the
success of the Coffee & Cake stall at the International Gala we are keen to
do this again, with your help. Cake
boxes will be distributed for the students to bring home, in the hope that you
will fill them with a cake/slice/biscuits/savoury items that we can sell. A range of box sizes will be available,
including smaller ones that may be more appropriate for slice/biscuits. If you have a box size preference, or would
like more than one box, please let Rachel Watson know by Thursday 14th
Feb. rachel_w@xtra.co.nz or ph
477 3525.
Helpers on the day – Helpers
are needed for cooking and serving at the BBQ, selling other food/snacks and hot/cold
drinks, supervising and coin collection at activities, setting up and tidying
up. We plan on breaking these tasks into
one hour slots so that everyone can still get to enjoy the day. If you can contribute even more than an hour
- fantastic! Just 1/2hr, then we would
still love to hear from you – The time
slots are:
·
10.30am-11.30am
·
11.30am-12.30pm
·
12.30pm-1.30pm
·
1.30pm-2.30pm
If you have a
preferred task and or time slot, get in quick.
