Our students have been told about the up and coming Parents Association Car Boot Sale.
Encourage your child to have a stall...
Here’s
a great way to make some
extra pocket money!
extra pocket money!
On Saturday 10th September from 8am to 1pm there is going
to be a CAR BOOT SALE on the Vaiala
Beach School Field.
What
is a car boot sale?
This is where people sell their
old things, normally out of the boot of their car. They are great fun to go to because you might
find a bargain and they are great to sell things at because it gets rid of your
old things you no longer play with or need – which is like recycling! You can even make some money.
What
can you sell?
Anything ! (except your little
brother or sister) Ask your parents
first if you are allowed to sell the items.
You can’t raid your parent’s things without their permission!
You may like to do some baking
and sell cakes.
Maybe you have crafts you could
sell.
What
do I need to have on the day?
Some change, if someone gives you
a $10 note and the item cost $2 – you will need to give them how much
change? Maybe you will have an adult at
your stall to help you.
Why
is there a car Boot Sale?
The Parent’s Association
fundraise and with the money raised they buy resources and other educational
things to help the school (Wow! Thanks
PA!) This car boot sale is a
fundraiser. The PA want to sell 50 stalls. Each stall will cost $50. Can you work out
how much money this fundraiser will make?
You may like to pair up with someone so you can split the $50. You are going to have to make more than the
$50 (your cost) to have a profit!
Why
is it better to sell things at a car boot Sale?
Lots of people will come to this
car boot sale so you are going to have a bigger audience looking at your things
to sell.
Should
I price my things?
You may like to price some things
before hand. Talk with your parents
about how much you should charge?
Do
I have to have a stall?
No, you might like just to come
and buy things from other people’s stalls.
Can
anyone have a stall even if they don’t go to VBS?
YES!!! This is open to anyone; all they have to do
is register first. They can contact
Cheri on 7683684 or call Tanya at school 20518 to say they want a stall.
Please ask your parents,family
and friends if they would like to have a stall at the VBS Parents’ Association
Car Boot Sale!!!
Bring a little table or tarpaulin
to put your things on and get ready to make some money. Maybe you are starting to save for
something. The Year 7 and 8 students are
fundraising for their camp in Term 4.
What would you like to save for?
