Silverton Summer Play
Investment project code: 18
Summary
Description
Silverton Summerplay was a group set up over 25 years ago by a group of parents with children at Knoxland Primary, Braehead Primary and St Patrick’s Primary to give the children in p4-p7 a week of fun activities in the summer. We are now a committee of 12 volunteer parents from the 3 primary schools who continue this on an annual basis. We meet as a committee every 2 months to plan fundraising events and also the fun week. Our fundraising consists of discos for over 100 children as well as an annual bag packing in a local supermarket. These funds are then used to book a fun day at Knoxland and various days out visiting parks and amusement parks. This funding will be used to cover the costs of the coaches we hire for the trips and also towards the park entrance for the children. All families who take part in the summerplay week will benefit. The cost of the week has been £50 and any additional funding would help to keep the cost of the trip to this level with the cost of the buses increasing over the last few years.
