South Africa Tour 2019 Fundraising

Drumming Fundraiser 17th of October

One of our main fundraising activities the African Drumming For a Cause event is being held on Wednesday the 17th of October in the Quad of the Duncraig Campus. The evening will consist of a South African style braii and traditional drumming by the Akwaaba Drumming group.  It has been an enjoyable evening in the past where you can try your hand at drumming.

 

Students have been allocated tickets to sell for the event.  It is important to remember that ticket sales contribute directly to each individual’s personal fundraising targets.  We have encouraged each student to sell a minimum of 10 tickets, however the more the better.

 

Parent Info Evening Summary

For those who were unable to attend the recent Parent Info evening or those that wanted a summary of the info that was presented, the link below contains information that was discussed.  Importantly, families should be discussing and arranging passports, copies of birth certificates and vaccinations.  If you have further queries please discuss with one of your tour leaders

It’s been a busy and exciting term and we hope that everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday.  Next term will be full of sausage sizzles and car washes so get plenty of rest!

Duffle bag sale – Anaconda

Anaconda Sale (thanks to those who have alerted me to this)

As discussed at our parent evenings, students will need 2 duffle bags for the trip.  Currently Anaconda have a sale until the end of the weekend.  The “club” price is almost 50% off and there is no cost to join.

I have attached a link to the bag that many students had last year but this in ways means that it is the only one avaialble.  I would recommend the 140L bags as the best size.

If you are unable to take advantage of this sale, don’t be too worried as they offer this a couple of times a year.

Over the next couple of days I will be adding the fundraising link, the parent evening summary and details for our exciting “Drumming for a Cause” event.

 

I hope tonight’s music recital goes well for those involved.
