Bus Society Meeting 10 October

The next Pukekohe East School Bus Society meeting is on Monday 10 October 2016 at 7pm at the offices of Searle Group, 25 Queen Street, Pukekohe.

This meeting is open to all school families, to learn how the school bus operates and get involved. Bus society meetings are a great way to meet other parents and new ideas are welcomed.

Plea to Bus Families

Dear fellow bus families,

The bus fees we pay go towards the cost of operating the bus but they don’t cover all operating expenses. Subscriptions fall short $10,000 each year on operating costs alone and we collectively need to offset the difference through fundraising, otherwise it will be a case of increasing bus family fees in 2017 to make up some of the shortfall. The bus society may also need to revisit the discounted school charter rate which would impact school trip prices.

So please get behind the Pukekohe East School Bus Society’s hypnotist fundraiser evening next Friday 12th August. This is our one big fundraiser for the school bus this year and we need your help to raise money from the community.

Here’s how you can help:

  1. Invite friends, family, neighbours, colleagues, everyone, to the comedy hypnotist fundraiser. They can buy their tickets online at eventfinda.co.nz. Search ‘Dave Upfold’.
  2. Please could you help out by providing a plate of baking. We’re providing a light supper in the ticket price and home baking will help us to keep our costs down. Please drop off your baking to Gail in the Resource Room (old Library) on Thursday or Friday next week.
Thanks for your support.
From your Bus Society Executive
Sarah Beston, Sally Grey, Lara Utatao and Lisa Wharfe.
