We are the Parent Teacher Association for St Polycarp's Catholic Primary School in Farnham, raising money to support our children at school. Funds we raise are spent on supporting our children with classroom and outdoor learning, and improving our school premises. Having recently supported some indoor projects such as reading books and refurbishing toilets, we are now focusing on enhancing outdoor areas.

Buying a balloon is a great way to help us raise funds to support our children's school experience.

Just buy a balloon then follow it from its release in Manaus, Brazil at 12pm on Saturday 17th July as it is buffeted by real-world weather patterns in a virtual, computer simulated, eco-friendly race. Whose balloon will go the furthest?

The PTA is buying every class a balloon so our children can all join in the fun, and track the progress of their class balloon together.

To take part:
1. Click on the blue 'buy balloons' bar below - you'll need your card details.
2. Create an account (it's easy and required to send you any winnings and track your balloon).
3. Buy a balloon for £3 in the 'Schools Out' race for 'St Polycarp's School PTA' - these are the default details if you click through from here.
4. Design your balloon

Once the race starts, you can log in to your account to follow your balloon's progress during the 7 day race to see if you win!

Prizes available for the race as a whole:
1st Prize £500 cash
2nd Prize Apple i-Pad
10 runner up prizes of £10 book tokens

We are also giving extra prizes for our PTA race (so you have an even better chance of winning!)
1st Prize £50 cash
2nd Prize £40 cash
3rd Prize £25 cash

Thank you so much for your support.

Our fundraising target is: £500

Gross monies raised so far: £489

Supporters so far: 82
