Our Fun time Playground

2023-09-10  •  No comments  •  Woodlands parent council  •  Irvine

The children of Woodlands Primary have taken a vote and decided that they would like to have our markings in the playgound renewed as most have worn away. When speaking with them they have spoken out to wanting more activites that they can do within the sports element, this way it helps keeping them healthy by being active which also helps in the mental well being. 

The kids have asked for Netball court to be painted as well as other amazing educational markings and games that could help with the younger end of the school.

We are still waiting to hear from contractors for the pricing and costs for the paint and labour to make this amazing project possible for the kids at Woodlands Primary

Extended Pathway and disabled ramp access

2023-09-13  •  No comments  •  Irvine Cricket Club  •  Irvine

Our car park is hardcore and is regularly flooding and is very uneven. Families use this car park to attend cricket matches and training nights. To make it easier for access to our grounds we are looking to extend a current pathway that starts at our building deep into the existing car park area in order for families to reverse park cars and remove wheelchairs , prams from car boots etc and have an easier walk and far safer entrance into our area. It will also means everyone arrives dry and clean which makes it easier as well. We will also be building a ramp access into our changing rooms and toilet area for families and wheelchair users to access without having to go across to our main sports club building. The cost will be £1850 for the ramp, pathway construction including materials and labour. We have £1000 raised towards this project and would like to apply for £850.

Irvine Meadow 2009

2023-09-11  •  No comments  •  Irvine Meadow2009  •  Irvine

As a club we are always trying to improve the opportunities available to the children however we are constantly coming up against financial barriers due to the rising costs of hiring pitches, referee fees, coaches education and general equipment. We are currently raising money to take the team to a football tournament in Blackpool during the easter weekend 2024 which is a 3 night stay including 2 days of football for the children. This is a great opportunity for the team to socialise and have a weekend with their family and friends whilst playing competitive football.  Being accepted for this grant would help us reach our target ensuring that no boy misses out due to the cost for their family. The club are trying to cover the cost of the boys to reduce the amount that families need to pay however if we manage to raise more then we can reduce the costs further for families.

Cost of tournament fee - £140

Cost of accommodation for players - £2588

Cost of accommodation including parents - £6628

2) Venue cost - covering the cost of the pupils, carers and as the risk assessment  states the  required teacher/helper  to child ratio cost.  Approx cost £500.
