Deer Park and every other school has struggled through Covid but now we're coming through it and loving the time we can spend together again. To make the most of that and be able to raise funds for our kids to enjoy school to the max we want to have another virtual balloon race.
After the success of the Valentines Race previous, this time, we're going for a race on an extra special event, the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.
Deer Park Primary School is an amazing school and the more we can invest in our kids the better so please support us as every penny counts towards our cause. Examples of where the PTA funding has helped recently is the purchase of iPads for the kids to use in school and assisting with the rental of a book vending machine which the kids absolutely love.
You’ll be able to choose the shape, colour and pattern of your virtual balloon and even determine its weight by choosing how much helium goes into it. You can write on your balloon too! The balloon design process is really easy and great fun for kids and adults alike so please all join in!!
There will be hundreds of other balloons in the race as you’ll be competing against other charities and organisations from across the UK. Just like a real balloon race, your balloon could be affected by the weather, wind speed, the shape you choose, and high flying geese!
All balloons will be launched virtually. After the race starts you’ll be able to follow your balloon on a Google map as it travels across the country, or even overseas! The winners will be the balloons that reach the furthest point in a straight line at the end of the seven days.
Each balloon costs £3, and all the profits raised from the virtual balloon race will go towards our PTA funds to make sure we can continue to support the school. As this virtual race is against lots of other causes Deer Park will also be putting forward their own cash prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place Deer Park supporters so why not give it a go!
Eco Racing's prizes include £500 cash, Amazon Echo or dot, and 10 x £10 book tokens.
Deer Park prizes for those buying balloons to support Deer Park:
1st prize: £50 cash
2nd prize £25 cash
3rd prize £10 cash
Our fundraising target is: £300
Gross monies raised so far: £104
Supporters so far: 18
