This cause was part of Christmas Day Race
This unique race URL is https://ecoracing.co/cause/friends-of-paddock-wood-primary-academy-1153/


The purpose of the PTA is to organise fun events to raise funds to enhance and enrich our children's education, with November and December normally being our busiest and most exciting months. These unusual circumstances call for a different approach to fundraising, so we hope you will enjoy being involved in our virtual balloon race so that we can continue to raise funds. The funds raised will go towards the Staging Project, water bottles and Gingerbread treats for all Reception Starters, maintenance of all the playground equipment as well as those fun events your PTA organise and run for the children of Paddock Wood Primary; Discos, Fireworks Night and our Summer Fayre. Money raised by Paddock Wood Primary PTA has paid for:
- Outdoor Learning Cameras
- Leavers Books for 2020 Year 6 Leavers
- Waterproof over clothing sets
- Sandpit for EYFS (Reception)
- Buddy Benches
- Refurbishment of some of the Key Stage 2 classrooms
This is an eco-friendly 7-day balloon race, using real-time weather data to simulate a real race - the balloons are the only things that aren't real! In addition to the main prizes offered by ecoracing.co, we'll also be awarding our own prizes, just for those balloons purchased for us: first prize of £50, for the balloon that flies the furthest; second prize of £25; third prize of £10; 5 runner-up hampers of children's goodies.

Our fundraising target is: £2000

Gross monies raised so far: £1332

Supporters so far: 131
