Ardrossan Winton Rovers 2010 Holland Tournament

2023-09-07  •  No comments  •  Ardrossan Winton Rovers 2010  •  Three Towns

The cost of the trip is £449.00 per person which includes Transport, Accommodation on half board basis.  We have 16 boys and 4 coaches signed up along with an additional 19 family members who are making the trip to support the boys.  The total cost of the trip for the team is £8980.00 plus £8531.00 for the additional family members. It is our intention to fundraise to reduce the total cost for families to make this affordable and inclusive to all.  The current cost of living crisis makes it increasingly difficult for community groups to raise funds to create these opportunities.

Dykesmains PS Parent Council

2023-09-11  •  No comments  •  Dykesmains  •  Three Towns

We would like to develop the area for forest school, allowing the family learning programme to continue, with den making, outdoor cooking and growing.  The following items would be required: Outdoor tarpaulens £100, den-making kit £120, discovery table £250, explorer kits £150, outdoor cooking equipment £180, outdoor storage £200.  This would allow the pupils to utilise these facilities in their learning and in their playtime.  In addition, with coordination from the eco group and family learning, they will be able to continue with learning for sustainability and allowing parents/ carers and siblings to access these lessons as after school workshops.  These have been very successful in the past at bringing our school community together, but requires some additional funding for the resources.  Unfortunately, some our outdoor features were vandalised recently and now need to be secured in outdoor storage.

Ardrossan Parent Council

2023-09-04  •  No comments  •  Ardrossan Parent Council  •  Three Towns

Our Transition Programme is split into 3.

  1. Good Start Gift Bags 
  2. Potted Sports Event 
  3. Transition Disco 

The Parent Council aims to support all children transitioning from primary school into Ardrossan Academy, we work in close partnership with the school to enhance opportunities for our young people. Last year the newly appointed Parent Council recognised the struggles of the cost of the school day following covid and the current cost of living crisis, the is where the idea for the 'Good Start Gift Bag' came from. It ensured equality across the whole of the year group as all pupils were issued with the Bag containing school essentials. 

 The bag itself is a drawstring PE kit bag,it contains a pencil case with pens, pencils, ruler, rubber, sharpener and highlighter, a reusable tub for HE lessons, a scientific calculator and a Spanish dictionary. The cost per bag is £15. The bag is gifted in May/June 2024.

The potted sports event takes place in the astro area of Ardrossan Academy, this event promotes team building and developing friendships. The children are split into their "house" which allows them to meet peers from other primary schools prior to attending classes with them. The cost of this event is £600, this covers the cost of equipment and refreshments on the day. This event takes place in May/June 2024. 

The transition disco allows the children to meet in a much more relaxed environment and gives them another opportunity to meet the pupils the will be in classes with. The costs included in this event are dj hire and refreshments which are approximately £600. The transition disco will be in June 2024.

The estimated cost of the entire transition project is approximately £3000, depending on where we can source the best price for the items we require for the bags. We hope to recieve the full £1000 available from this application and will hold other fundraising events.

Educational STEM / ECO Trips

2023-09-08  •  No comments  •  Lesley Richardson  •  Three Towns

A variety of trips throughout the year - Science Centre / Whitelees Windfarm / Dumfries House / Museum of Rural Life - Farm Trip / Vikingar / Educational Science shows to visit the school - Sense.

Dependent on which stage goes there are approximately 60 kids and 1/2 buses needed for each trip.  Just now we are over £250 for a bus and per head for most of these trips it is 4/5 pounds so it is approximately £500 a trip per school year stage.  So any contribution for buses and activities would be amazing.

Ardeer Thistle 2015's

2023-09-03  •  No comments  •  ll88  •  Three Towns

Most of the boys have already been supplied with a new kit, but being able to expand the team further, giving more children the opportunity to join a community team, we would need to supply kit to an extra 5 kids at a cost of £105 per person, totalling £525. This means all of the boys will match at tournaments and in playing within the leagues. Across the winter we would also like to be able to book all weather pitches or indoor facilities to allow training to continue without extra costs to our families. This will cost £120 per month, November to February, at a cost of £480. In total, we would request £1000 to cover all costs.

Hayocks Primary School Parent Council

2023-09-15  •  No comments  •  Hayocks primary parent council 2023  •  Three Towns

We as a Parent Council feel that since lockdown during the pandemic that  its more important now than ever that children get to socialise and mix with other children and parties are the perfect opportunity for them to do this, as this ensures that the children and young people to have the opportunity to lead a healthy and active life. We would get the children involved within the planning of the parties so that they're voices are being heard and what their preferences are. the money we are applying for would be spent on as follows:

  • Hall to hold the parties and events - £90 x3
  • Decorations  because a party isn't complete without decorations - £310
  • Entertainment - £200
  • Catering - £70 x3

With the cost of living crisis people aren't able to have parties or children aren't able to attend parties with the lack of funds within families so if we are able to take the stress away for some parents and support the mental well being of the children in the community then we would love to do so.  Our aim is to have a Valentines party for the children in February, Easter party in April and then a halloween party in October next year.

The under 14's girls team is newly established.  It already has 22 girls who have joined and the numbers are continuing to climb.  Due to the team being newly established we need to ensure we have the essential items for the girls to feel they are truly part of a team/club. 

We hope to use the funding for:

22 x Training strips £660.00

We will be creating fundraising events to make up the additional costs.
