The Time Has Come

The time has finally come. What an unbelievable experience. We were spectacularly successful.

We raised an astonishing $316.75 - the 5c was Australian!
When we add the money Erin and Hannah collected at the Athletics Day - $38 that brings us to a grand total of $356.35

KP and Snos have organised Lee from Red Cross to come and talk to our class and collect the money on Monday.

Possible Busking Places

Photo A - Outside Downtown - on the left of this photo by the brown wall.
















Photo B - also outside Downtown, in front of the reddish wall and part of the shop beside it (anyone know what shop it is?)











Photo C - to the right of the Regent - in front of the Ticket Office (if they'd let us).

We need to choose an area where we won't be blocking shops or anything. We also need to work out where we'll put our sign. We'd be interested in your comments about which location would be better and why. Can you also just fill in the poll on the right. Thanks, Organising Committee.

We have decided on photo A

Our class is doing a fundraiser to help Samoa as they have had a big tsunami. We have come up with an idea to do busking in town. We will be located outside the Regent on Broadway and Downtown.

We will be doing this on the 10th of December from 12:30 until 1:30.

We will need transport for all students and permission.

(Please fill in the form below and return it to school by Friday the 4th of December).

Yours sincerely
Estelle Pasene and Jack Beaumont
