FOS Hay Fundraiser

For many years South Makirikiri School community spends the summer months picking up conventional hay bales. All the money raised goes back to providing opportunities for the students to experience a range of activities. In recent years the turf was developed as part of the money raised and the last two years money has contributed to EOTC (Camp experiences)

For 2023 we need someone to pick up being the key contact for contractors to touch base with where there are jobs to do. This person does not need to be at every hay pick up but more the key contact and then distribute the messages to the community. It is then the school community gets along to help out.   

If this is something you feel you could help take on please give Rob Simpson a call on 0273267626 to discuss what is involved.
