21.01.2022 HOT TIP OF THE WEEK DO YOUR RESEARCH: When hiring a service you want to make sure they are professionals at what they do. Who you involve in your event will significantly impact on the final results.... Yes you need to be price conscious and yes you should obtain more than one quote for the various items you require. however We all know the old saying "You get what you pay for". Reputation is everything, ask around for recommendations. Speak to other schools and event coordinators. Ask who they used and what their experience was like. Why not go a step further and actually attend some events around the city and see for yourself. Find out who is getting the job done successfully, and perhaps more importantly who isnt #carnivalland #research #fundraising #events #fetes #fairs #festivals #clubs #community #corporate #service #reputation #recommendations #referrals #yougetwhatyoupayfor #professionals

21.01.2022 HOT TIP OF THE WEEK KEEP ACCURATE RECORDS - COLLECT, RETAIN, PASS IT ON... Its so important to create an event folder which can then be passed on every year. The handing over of records and contacts is a must do part of every successful fundraising program. It will become your event bible. There is no need to reinvent the wheel. A simple folder with lists of contacts, who to order things from, who was good to deal with, how much stock to order and how many volunteers it took to operate each section. It will save you so much time and stress in the years to follow. Leaving more time to actually raise funds! #carnivalland #tips #ideas #fundraising #records #collect #retain #passon #events #fete #fair #festival #carnival #corporate #community #clubs #schools #stressless #futurethinking

20.01.2022 HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY Wishing you all an awesome long weekend. Enjoy it #carnivalland #australiaday #thankful #luckycountry

20.01.2022 HOT TIP OF THE WEEK LESS REALLY IS MORE All day events may seem like a good idea but it can be a big mistake. Think about how long six, eight or even ten hours really is to be up and running at full capacity? Set up, operate and pull down, its a very long day.... "the longer people are here the more they will spend" Its just not the case. Families will spend what they have. Once the money runs out they will go home. They will spend just as much over 4-5 hours as they would over 8. Perhaps even more Not to mention the safety concerns. Kids going full throttle for 4-5 hours straight will get very tired. When they get tired, they dont concentrate. So perhaps do not fully comprehend the safety instructions. Safety is always our first priority. Lastly think about your volunteers, do you want them so burnt out they dont want to come back next year? For more helpful tips contact us for a copy of our e-book "The 5 biggest Mistakes That Fete Organizers Make & how to avoid them! www.carnivalland.com.au #carnivalland #tips #fete #fair #festival #carnival #events #schools #community #clubs #corporate #safety #lessismore #5biggestmistakes #heretohelp

16.01.2022 FUNDRAISING IDEAS: PRE LOVED CLOTHING Who doesn't love a good bargain right? Everyone has something cluttering up the back of the closet, so it shouldn't be to hard to get donations. Make sure the donated clothing is clean and in good condition otherwise it just wont sell on the day.... Presentation is everything, show off the clothes just like a store if you can. Get creative using hanging racks crates, baskets and pallets. A shabby chic or boho feel is always super trendy. #carnivalland #fundraising #tips #ideas #preloved #bargains #shopping #hidden #treasure #fete #fair #festival #carnival #stall #markets #schools #clubs #community #events #ecofriendly #smartshopping #save #reuse

15.01.2022 THE NO BAKE SALE Bake sales are hard to organize these days especially with all the dietary restrictions and rules schools have in place now. And who has the time right? How about a no-bake sale. Send the kids home with a teabag attached to a note. The note should say something like Dont have the time or skills to bake? Yay now you dont have to! Just relax, sit down,have a cup of tea and donate what it would have cost you. It really is that simple. ... Cash donations can be returned using this envelope or you can direct deposit. The P&C Thanks you for your support. Simple fundraising ideas are usually the most successful.

13.01.2022 FUNDRAISING IDEAS: COMMUNITY COOKBOOK Have all the families submit their favorite recipes and put together a book. There is so many online printing resources now so you can make it look amazing without having to spend a lot. You should end up with a really affordable end product that is made more special by the community contribution. Pricing it will depend on your cost.

12.01.2022 FUNDRAISING IDEAS HUNGRY PIGS These are very hungry pigs, but they only eat money!!!... Class piggy banks can be made out of large juice or milk bottles. The challenge is to feed the pig and fill it up. Once your class pig is full shes ready to have a baby! and so the process begins all over r again. How many generations can each class raise? The kids will love making and naming their class pigs. #carnivalland #fundraising #tips #ideas #hungrypigs #mummapig #bubbapig #cute #fun #community #schools #clubs

09.01.2022 HOT TIP OF THE WEEK ARMBAND SALES Pre-selling armbands to your event is the key to success. The biggest reason being it guarantees you an income to cover expenses and that people are actually going to turn up!.... Pricing will depend on how many rides you have booked. Pre-selling armbands at a discounted rate will encourage people to buy early. Issue a receipt but dont hand out the armbands until the day of your event so they dont get lost. On the day set up a table or two depending on the size of your event. Split the tables into two alphabetic lines. Have two volunteers at each table. one to collect the receipts and cross off names and the other to put on the armband correctly, not to tight or to loose Make sure your guests get the most out of their time by opening up the armband stand an hour before the ride kickoff time. This will keep things flowing nicely. #carnivalland #hottip #fundraising #armbands #fete #fair #festival #carnival #schools #community #family #fun #joy #keytosuccess #worksmarternotharder

08.01.2022 TIPS TO FIND NEW VOLUNTEERS: Make sure people know the positions available. Create a flyer, advertise in the newsletter and post on the school or organisations Facebook page. Include a descriptions of the jobs you need help with and the duties of the position. The estimated time commitment, and any other important information. ... Youre more likely to find a good match for your position if you publicize it well. Good Luck #carnivalland #volunteers #howtofindthem #tips #goodluck

07.01.2022 DOES YOUR SCHOOL HAVE A TILED DROP CEILING? THEN THIS FUNDRAISER IS FOR YOU This is a super simple school fundraiser that; Doesnt require a lot or planning or upfront cost.... No selling or asking your friends and family for money. Is super fun Promotes community spirit Has real potential to raise money! With the approval of your school, sell the opportunity of painting the drop ceiling tiles throughout the classrooms and administrative buildings. Just imagine the colour, joy and individual personality this could bring to your school. The P&C only needs to provide the tiles and the painting supplies. Take reservations before the event (so you know how much paint to buy and the minimum number of tiles you will need) add on a few extra for tiles sold on the night. Charge a set amount per tile. The day before or the morning of the event, arrange to take down the appropriate number of tiles. Set up tips: Cover tables with paper to make clean up easier. Paper plates for mixing paint and cups of water for rinsing brushes. Inspirational, Positive, Supportive messages and stencils are a great way to create some amazing designs. Dont over soak the tiles in paint, or they become fragile. Use paint sparingly, let it dry between coats. Using hair dryers and fans will help speed up the drying process. Have each family mark the back of the tile with their name, date and phone number. They become like a time capsule. Be prepared for spills and clean ups. Having lots of paper towels around will come in handy! Allow the tiles to dry overnight. All thats left to do is to place the tiles back in the ceiling. The kids will love searching the school to find and show off their tiles. Proud to have left their mark on the school they love. Those who couldnt make it will have major FOMO and want to know when the next PAINT THE TILE night is. Whats been your schools most successful fundraiser?

06.01.2022 WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL!!!! WE HOPE EVEYONE HAD AN AMAZING FIRST DAY HOT TIP OF THE WEEK... DATE SELECTION Weather plays a big part in selecting a date for your event. While around Spring is certainly a very beautiful time of the year its also one of the busiest Its bitter sweet for us to have to turn down so many jobs between August - October every year just because we are booked solid. Not to mention theres always hundreds of other events going on around the city to compete with Autumn and earlier in the year is just as beautiful, theres not as many events on and best of all has less storms. We encourage committees to contact us ASAP to secure your preferred date. Some weekends are already full. More and more clients are starting to book a year in advance. After all they do say the early catches the right?

04.01.2022 EXPLAINER: FIREWORKS Fireworks DO NOT fall under a local fire ban currently in place in some parts of Queensland. This means they can be used by licensed ...professionals. Only when a Declaration of State of Fire Emergency is in place (which it is not) that there is restrictions. Fireworks are controlled under the Explosives Act 1999, not the Fire and Emergency Services Act 1990. Only those issued with licences under the Act are allowed to use them. This means only competent and licensed fireworks contractors can possess, use and organise a fireworks display
