50p Trail

The PTA would like to say a great big thank you to everyone who took part in the 50p fundraising trail. The children were all so sensible and together, we transformed the hall with the words ‘YSGOL MAESYBRYN PRIMARY’ spelled out in silver coins across the middle and 26 rows of copper coins above and beneath them. Between us, we managed to raise £414.56! Well done everyone!

Thanks also to The Royal Mint for their generous donation of the London 2012 Olympic coins for each of the children and a silver proof coin for us to raffle at a later date.
Last but certainly not least, our grateful thanks go to Mr. Price of Crown Hill Post Office and Spar for kindly counting the money for us. It took four of us all afternoon just to bag it all up.
As far as the challenge goes…although we were inside, we would have had sufficient coins to surround the school almost twice!!! Da iawn pawb!

  1. Thanks for adding the slide show Mrs Rees. It was a super morning and the photos really show how much the children enjoyed taking part. I hope we'll be able to do it again in the future. Good fun for a great cause.
