Dear Grose View community,
The Cake Stall needs YOU!Our Country Fete is fast approaching and it’s time to get excited! The Cake Stall is an important part of our fundraising for the Country Fete and the more cakes we have the more money we can raise for our school.
For our stall to be a success we need everyone in our wonderful Grose View community to make cakes, slices, jams, breads, pastries, etc. to sell. In preparation, we are asking that our supporters fill out the form below so we are able to work out how much we will have for sale on the day and to also give you the containers you need to deliver your beautiful goods to us.
We ask that every family please return this completed form by 17 August, so our volunteers have time to package up what you need and get it to you in time for the big day. We will send home your cake boxes with your youngest child to be filled with goodies for sale at our Country Fete.
All Cake Stall items to be delivered to school on Friday 24 August or Saturday 25 August (Country Fete day) to the school hall.
Thank you in advance. Our stall is not possible without all of your support.From the Cake Stall vendors,Leah Henderson & Sharline XerriThe Cake Stall, sponsored by Sharline’s Cupcake Kitchen.
