Quality Family Time – A Great Weekend!
I have spent the weekend (and most of last week) fund raising for my children’s school by helping to organise the school’s Summer Fair.
If you have read the “About Family Guide” page you will know my family are number one in my life and I suggest that anyone who values their children’s education get involved with their school as much as they can. This is my first year as a committee member of the PTA and I didn’t realise just how much hard work it is to ensure these events work. The good news is that we achieved new records raising more money than before so it was definitely well worth it.
The main thing I have learnt is that the BBQ at a Summer Fair is really busy. I volunteered to run it as we were short on people putting themselves forward. My suspicions should have been raised as other parents sniggered on Saturday morning when they found out I was doing the BBQ and to be honest, it was harder work than my day job!
But it was for my children and their education will benefit when we spend all the money on additional resources for their classrooms, so I didn’t mind.
However it is Monday morning so back to everyday life.
Keep a look out later this week as we have a new “Easy Science Projects” guide coming your way to help you help your family.
