Founder's Day 2008
Hey everyone, as many of you would have forgotten, founder's day is coming and we'll being doing CIP on that day (whoopee!) Right, so here are some details.
Date: 20th Mar 2008 (Thurs)
Organisation: Whispering Hearts Family Centre
Nature of activity: Carnival
Venue: At the centre itself
Time: 10am - 2pm (reach at about 9.20am)
Target Audience: Students studying at the centre and possibly their parents. Open to the public for fund-raising for the centre through sales at the carnival
Dress Code: School Uniform / Half-U/ Fac Shirt (recommended)
What to do: Come to school on that day, transport should be provided
Okay, so here's what's up. We will be provided with 1 or 2 booths (mainly a space and tables and benches), the venue is like a void deck (where they have malay weddings and funerals etc.) The centre has about 80+ children ranging from 5-12 years of age, and the carnival would be dedicated to them, but will also be open to the public. So, we have to come up with either a
-games
-drinks
-food
-magic (balloon sculpture etc.)
stall, making sure the stalls cater to the children.
Any suggestions ? Please post a comment or just voice it out to me or Jolene in school. A proposal has to be submitted by next Tuesday.
Once we come up with what to do, we have to buy what we need for the stalls, we'll need to pay 1st, keeping the receipts so that we can claim them from the people in charge. Our budget is at $100 (which is not alot) and if we're selling food, the amount would be estimated for 60-80 people. (similar to CNY carnival)
Alternatively, we can put up a performance to entertain the children (eg. dancing, singing of children songs, skits) etc. Of course we have to make sure the content is suitable for children of that age group. Students who are not required to man stalls on that day will be allocated tasks to bring the children around the carnival to play. (Theo don't get too excited) 08A10 has specifically been warned by our honorary loser club member Mr Teh that there should not be any inappropriate behaviour with the kids. So, ya just watch yourselves (or just watch Theo). That's about it, any queries can be directed to me.
We owned in the CNY carnival, let's own this too!
