Every year School Council raises money in a variety of different ways. We do this because there are pieces of equipment, musical instruments, sporting goods, books, workshops or simply fun events that the School Board does not fund or does not fund completely. School Council sets out to augment existing funds to provide as much as we can to ensure that our children have varied opportunities, to experience new things, to have fun, and to learn using up to date equipment. Currently, we are focusing much of our fundraising efforts on Play Yard! It is our plan to have a new and exciting outdoor play area for the school’s children.
In the fall, we kick off our fundraising efforts for the year with the Do Nothing Campaign https://give.stratly.com/henry-larsen-elementary-school/campaigns/general-donations . All money raised through this initiatives goes directly to items for the school such as:
– Books for the Reading Club
– Funds needed for Monster Mash
– Wish List items put forward by the staff
– Workshops or guest speakers for the students
– Teacher’s appreciation lunch at the end of the year
Throughout the year, we also raise money specifically for Play Yard through the following activities:
– Family Bingo
– Family Movie Night
– Craft Fair
Fundraising and the subsequent enhancements we can offer the students of Henry Larsen School work best with full community involvement. If you have any ideas for new fundraisers or would like to help out with one of our existing fundraisers, please contact us at [email protected] – we’d love to hear from you!
Thank you for your continued support!
