St Paul's Fundraiser
We were delighted to recieve this great article about the St Patrick's Day fundraiser that the Friends of St Paul's in Karratha recently held! Looks like a fun night was had by all in attendance! If your school parent group would like to share a story about a recent event please email the article and some phiotos through to admin@csp.wa.edu.au
With St Patrick’s Day upon us, it would seem quite reasonable that a cheeky back flipping Leprechaun was in town, wouldn’t it? Well, those lucky enough to secure a seat at the St. Pat’s Community Quiz Night on Saturday 13th March can report just that. Held by the Friends of St Paul’s School on site at the school’s idyllic undercover area.
The 300 attendees were treated to a great fun filled night that kept everyone engaged and fully entertained. Beyond the quiz itself the fun atmosphere was fueled by the flamboyant MC and a willing audience involved in all manner of table & floor games, Irish Jigs, and side jokes to boot. Attendees walked away with just under $5000 in prizes including $1600 to the winning table in a nail-biting finish.
The FOSPS committee exceeded their fundraising goal which once again highlights what a remarkably supportive community we live in. Gratitude and thanks to sponsors, supporters, and volunteers.
Post event feedback indicates that this annual event is here to stay and is one that Karratha needs to mark on its worthy planning calendar!
