A great effort today by all helpers and donors.

THANK YOU to our wonderful community for all chipping in with your time, efforts, donations and baking! It is so greatly appreciated. 💛

Just a reminder to please bring your contributions to the school by Friday at 3:30pm (or to Alexandra Shire Hall at 8:30am Saturday morning).

If anyone still has the capacity to give even an hour or two to help at the cake stall over the weekend, it would be incredibly helpful.

And if you’re unable to fill your volunteer shift, it would be greatly appreciated if you could please make efforts to help find someone to cover your spot so we can keep things running smoothly for everyone.

Thank you again for supporting our little school community — it truly means so much. ✨

***EDIT if anyone has forgotten what they committed to bringing/doing just text me and I can let you know (Kerri 0402624430) cheers

Where will you be set up?

Calling on our wonderful school community 💛

Firstly - THANK YOU so much to everyone who has already volunteered, donated or offered support for this weekend’s Murrindindi Beanie Festival fundraiser. We truly appreciate it.

We are still desperately needing a few more helping hands and donations to help make the weekend run smoothly - especially so Sarah isn’t left completely run off her feet (like every other year!). As most of you know, she gives so much extra care, energy and time to our kids and school community every single day, and it would be wonderful if we could all rally around and support Sarah and our wonderful school, this weekend.

We are still needing donations of:
Soup
Sausage rolls
Box tea bags
24 cans Coke Zero
24 cans Fanta
Bottle of BBQ sauce
Jar of Dijon mustard

As well as VOLUNTEERS for the cake stand!

We currently only have ONE volunteer for Saturday (me 😆), so we especially need help covering:
• Saturday 11am–2pm
• Saturday 1pm–4pm

And for Sunday we still need help with:
• Sunday 11am–2pm
• Sunday 1pm–4pm

Even if you can’t do a full shift, an hour of your time would make SUCH a difference and help share the load.

Thank you again for supporting our little school community - it genuinely means so much. 💕

I can be there on Saturday...with some sort of food option. Will search the recipe books. 😁

I’ll add tea bags & bottle of BBQ sauce to my list. I’ll get back to you about Saturday volunteering if I can.

Happy to help on Saturday if you still have gaps let me know xx
