The hockey fundraising season is over, but that didn’t stop a dedicated group of students and parents generously giving of their time to raise money for the school.
This winter, 2nd XI Hockey Mum Wendy Filip organised sausage sizzles at Bunnings to fundraise for tournament. Bunnings contact Wendy whenever there was a cancellation or spare slot for their weekend sausage sizzle. That happened recently, and Wendy and the team decided to go ahead, despite the fact fundraising is over for the year.
“As the winter hockey season was finished, we agreed that we would put a portion of the proceeds to the Event Centre project and the remainder would be for the girls who helped, so they could put it towards their hockey tournament fees for next year – either for 1st or 2nd XI tournament dependent on their team selection,” says 2nd XI Hockey Manager and sausage sizzle voluneeter Robyn McNaughton.
The group raised a brilliant $337 for the Event Centre – for which the school is extremely grateful. A huge thank you to the students and their parents: Anja Filip, Zoe Crawford, Danni Hall, Ashley Brown, Maia Houkamau and Kate Thornhill.
