Dear Parents and Friends of our school Kia Ora/Bora Da/Konichi Wa/Hello
This is a very short newsletter this week :)
Our Friends of Toko School Committee have been really limited in the fundraising events that our school has been able to participate in over the last couple of years.
We are really hoping that as many parents as possible can assist in our first fundraiser in a very long time. Further information below. As a school we rely on $15000 each year from this committee to support the school budget. Last year the money went towards upgrading computers/ipads, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) equipment and purchasing library books.

Principal
FRIENDS OF TOKO SCHOOL
The Committee are on the look out for families that can assist with this event. We require parents who can:
- Assist with registrations on the day
- Sell food
- Course Marshalls.
This is the first event we have been able to run in a very long time. We would really appreciate as much help as we can get. This is a really good fundraising opportunity for our school.
Please email office@toko.school.nz if you can assist. Please put trial bike ride in the subject heading.
