We are in a position to be able to fund all these requests.!

a decision prior to Christmas)!
@Tina: to go back to department heads and heads for bigger ideas!
@Tina: to ask Waitrose how we can participate in their funding scheme!

(2) Feasibility of a large project!


Canopy: Two quotes sent through for a canopy in two different locations - each is around 10,000!

Gym: several sites looked at - best site may be that next to the car park. But we may not own this
land? Several low-cost building options looked at. Probably looking at about 30,000. Could try to
source funding eg. sponsorship. Is this too much to organise?!

We still want to set up a donation page, but we want to launch it with a big idea, such as one of the
options above.!

@ Rowan: to set up a Gmail address for the PTA (as the one provided by the school is too
cumbersome)!
