Second hand uniform shop & labels:

These items have already started being advertised on the ‘Matangi School Families’ Facebook page. The shop will run once a term either in person or digitally, depending on stock levels.  

If you would like to order labels, please fill in this form.  As well as reducing the chances of your items ending up in lost property 5% of all sales will be donated towards our fundraising efforts.

On a side note: We’re always looking for uniform donations for the next pop up shop. Please drop any items you no longer require to Jo in the office.

 

Calendar artwork

Students create gorgeous artwork that we sell printed onto calendars and diaries. Details to be confirmed later in the year.

 

SOCIAL MEDIA

Matangi School Families – Facebook Group

If you haven’t already, please feel free to join this group on Facebook. It’s a great place to keep in touch with our growing family network. It’s the perfect place to ask questions, buy & sell uniforms, and just generally keep up to date with events that are happening at the school. It’s worth noting that this page is a just social group and managed by some of our parents. For official communications from the school, please follow the Matangi School page.

While we’re on the subject of the group page, if you would be interested in becoming an admin on it please email us. This would involve helping approve new members and moderating content. We only need a couple more people and would be a super easy way to contribute towards the school.

If you have any feedback about anything fundraising related, please feel free to get in touch with us fundraising@matangi.school.nz. We welcome any suggestions you might have.

 

ABOUT MATANGI FUNDRAISING:

What we do

We are a group of enthusiastic and friendly parents who work in conjunction with the Board of Trustees. Our main focus is to raise funds through school events and promotions with the end result always benefiting the school and our kids! All fundraising initiatives not only aid our children’s education and enjoyment at school, they also build a greater sense of community.

Our meetings

We hold regular committee meetings which are attended by the fundraising committee, the Principal and a Teacher representative.  We welcome your involvement at these meetings, as new ideas, suggestions, assistance in organising events is always appreciated. Please email us to find out when the next meeting is planned.

How to get involved

Feel part of the school community by becoming a member of the fundraising committee or just by helping out during school events. Whether you are interested in coming along to listen and learn or are ready to actively get involved you are welcome to any meeting. We love new ideas and new people. Email us to register your interest.

Our focus this year

We will be working closely with the Board of Trustees in deciding which projects will be priorities for fundraising in 2022 so will let you know the details on this when they are confirmed.

With all the uncertainly around requirements for events, and the logistical nightmare of trying to arrange passports, masks and all the other baggage that comes hand-in-hand with the dreaded Covid 19, we have decided not to have any ‘in person’ events this year. We will instead focus on activities that can be either done virtually or don’t require an audience.
