Spring Fair Raffle: A Tradition of Fun & Fundraising
Spring is just around the corner, and that means one of our most cherished annual events—the Spring Fair—is fast approaching! This lively celebration brings our community together for a day of fun, food, and festivities. Among the many highlights of the event is the eagerly anticipated Spring Fair Raffle, a long-standing tradition that adds excitement while supporting an important cause.
Raffle Draw Details
This year, the raffle draw will take place on Saturday, May 17, 2025, during the Spring Fair. While the fair itself is organised by the Somersfield Parent-Teacher Association (SPTA), the raffle ticket sales are part of a whole-school fundraiser managed by the Advancement Office at Somersfield Academy.
Raffle Ticket Distribution & Sales
Between Thursday, March 20, and Friday, March 21—just before Spring Break—your child will be bringing home a set of raffle tickets. We ask for your support in selling as many tickets as possible leading up to the event. The deadline for returning both sold and unsold tickets is Monday, May 5, to ensure everything is prepared for the draw.
What Are We Fundraising For?
This year, funds raised from raffle ticket sales will go towards purchasing new Somersfield vehicles to transport students to co-curricular activities, sports games, field trips, and interschool events. Your contributions will directly enhance opportunities for our students to engage in enriching experiences beyond the classroom.
A Little Competition!
As an added incentive, the student who sells the most tickets will receive a special Spring prize. This is a great way for our students to get involved in fundraising and be recognised for their efforts.
Need More Tickets?
If you need additional tickets, extra tickets will be available in Reception with Ms. Crockwell.
