Fundraising
Posted: Thursday, 26 March 2009 |
Its always good to put something we're proud of on the old island blogging site.
We went to Lerwick on Tuesday 24th March to present our cheque to Andrew Hughson of the CLAN 123 Appeal. The money was raised from our Wii night & through calendar & book sales (see the entry below for more details). £720 from 2 pupils is rather good going we thought!
This is a report from our P7 on the fundraising:
I am writing about our Wii Night on Saturday 21st March. 30 people appeared to play on the giant screen at the Fetlar School. It was a great evening producing a brilliant £360 on top of the previous £360, doubling our money for Clan House. The first £360 was fundraised through selling calendars and nursery children’s books written by the bairns.
The night gave opportunity for people to have a go on the Wii. Many people laughed as some inexperienced people had a go.
One particular person was playing tanks and kept blowing himself up with the mines. My Dad said that his sides hurt after the Wii night. All the other games were darts, table tennis, normal tennis, cow racing, shooting, fishing and bowling. We had a raffle and some very delicious fancies. We also had a game of guess the weight of the baby.
As the organiser I would like to thank everybody for coming and having a laugh and raising an astounding amount of money!

Truly outstanding. I think you two should have a word with Gordon Brown and offer your services to the UK economy. Well done, your Wii night sounds like great fun as well as a good fundraiser!

Well done you guys. Sounds like you had a lot of fun too and just out of interest, did anyone correctly guess the weight of the baby?
Carol from IBHQ

Oh what good work from you two! Terrific. And soon you will be off into the big wide world and will surely leave your marks. Good luck and good life.
