Daisy Chains Pre-School, West Wickham, Cambridge

 


Fundraising

 

Daisy Chain's income is derived from pre-school fees, Early Years funding from the Government and Fundraising. 

 

To ensure that your child receives the quality of care you would expect, all income received is allocated to staff salaries, village hall rental, insurance, toys, equipment and consumerables.

 

Fees and the Government funding is never quite enough for our survival.  So in the Committee and Staff's never ending quest to raise funds, we hold a number of events throughout the year to supplement our income. See below.

 Jumble Sale, 9th May 2009

This was our busiest jumble sale ever where we raised £600 and had around 100 people through our doors.  We had so much jumble donated we couldn't sell it all.  So thank you to those of you who donated your jumble.  Please keep us in mind next year.

Christmas Fair 2008

Approximately 180 people came through our doors to do a bit of Christmas shopping and to soak up the atmosphere over a cup of tea, coffee, mince pies and cake.  The fair raised over £700 which is the most this event has ever raised.  Thank you to everyone who supported this event.



Open Coffee Morning, October 2008

We held an open coffee morning and raised funds for Children in Need.  Mini-IQ, education books and games for children also had a stand selling their goodies.  As a result from the sales, £60 worth of books was donated to pre-school.

 

£92.69 was made from donations for the refreshments.  All monies raised were donated to Children in Need.

 

Wine Tasting, September 2008

Pre-School held a Wine Tasting Event at the Meadow School's hall.  Approximately 25 tickets were sold, mainly supported by parents from the local villages. 

 

It truly was a fun evening where Paul Bowes from Bacchanalia took us through 10 different types of wine from the very light Prosecco to the very heavy red wines.  By the end of the session, as you can imagine, we all were extremely happy.  Everyone had a thoroughly good time as we all had some good laughs in between each tasting!

 

The evening raised £146 which was derived from ticket and wine sales.

 

Quiz Night, June 2008

Pre-School held a joint Quiz Night with West Wickham' Village Hall Committee.  It was virtually a sell out.  Total takings were just under £1,000.  Once the expenses were accounted for it left just over £450 to be split, half for the Pre-School and the other for the Village Hall Committee.

 

This was a hugely successful night were a good time was had by all.

 

Jumble Sale, May 2008  

Our annual event of selling donated jumble donated by parents and the local community raised just over £300.

 

 

 

All the proceeds raised through our fundraising events benefit West Wickham Pre-School ensuring it's survival and most importantly of all, providing the quality of care for you child you would expect from us.

Thank you everyone for your continued support of West Wickham Pre-School.
