Chance to win a car with Kidd’s Beach Primary
A brand-new car awaits a lucky local winner as Kidd’s Beach Primary School is hosting a fundraising draw, in partnership with Kelston Chery East London, for a Chery Tiggo 4 Pro Urban.
The draw, which opened last year will close towards the end of the month. Tickets are R200 and the winner will be announced on June 8.
Kidd’s Beach teacher Kaylyn Arthur said the intention of the draw was to raise funds to improve the school’s facilities.
Anyone over the age of 18 and not directly related to a staff member can enter the competition.
Tickets are available from the school or from any Kidd’s Beach Primary School teacher or parent.
Tickets are also available online
from https://kbps.site/raffle/win/.
“The aim is to raise enough money to build much-needed classrooms and ablutions for our growing school,” Arthur said.
“The competition was launched
mid-2023, with the initial draw date being in December 2023, but due to a lack of ticket sales and after an application to Lotto, we were granted an extension.
“We still have a large number of tickets to sell before we reach our target. The draw will take place during our multisport festival.
“I must commend our staff for giving up many hours to sit at markets and going out into the community to sell these tickets.”
A series of events were planned to ensure they raised enough funds to develop their school facilities, given the school will be 113 years old this year and has grown exponentially.
The school will also host a colour run to raise funds for infrastructure improvements.
“Highlights would be the building and opening of our school swimming pool and completion of our school hall,” Arthur said.
