Friends of Whitehill and Highbury Schools

Friends of Whitehill and Highbury Schools (FOWHS) is an informal group that allows parents or other individuals to meet and discuss fundraising ideas, liaise with a committee and go onto organising their own events.

Thank you very much!

Thanks very much to the ladies who kindly helped serve refreshments at the after school Science Fair on Thursday 12th March and to Jackie and Gill for helping at the Netball Rally on Saturday 14th March. Thank you to those who also contributed cakes - they were very much appreciated by all who attended. We raised a very impressive £206 profit between the 2 events which as always, goes into the pot of money that is split between the schools at the end of the year. Just in case you didn't know, Mrs Avey is putting last years money towards a Wooden pirate ship for the Highbury School play ground, a play house for Nursery and the money also funded the visiting author on World Book Day. Whitehill's money is going towards lots of gardening trugs, full of lovely things for the children to use in the gardens at school.
Kind regards
Sue

    Netball Rally

    Use the bottom class room
    Urn needs to be put in place and switched on, early in the morning.
    Float with lots of change
    200g coffee
    Teabags
    lots of bio cups
    6 ltrs milk
    sugar
    tea spoons
    sugar bowl
    milk jug
    2 bottles squash
    jugs
    bin bags
    cloths to wipe down the tables
    Cakes - we had about 100 portions of cakes/biscuits and 80 twixes (reduce twixes to 60 for 2010). Could also sell capri suns - had about 22 this year but could have sold 10 more.
    flap jacks went very well and so did the lemon cake and brownies. People seem to go for the home baked stuff, rather than the bought chocolate. Everything was sold out at 11.20am.
    Jackie Morris and Gill Bhumbra have volunteered to host next years event too.
