Please contact this year s fete coordinator Steve Paton, stevepaton76@gmail.com, if you have any questions or ideas. Cake Stall Cake Decorating Stall Adopt-A-Teddy Stall Our cake stall was a great success last year and all families of Turner School students are again invited to bake cakes, slices, biscuits, cupcakes, muffins etc. to be sold on the cake stall at this year s fete. While cupcakes and slices sell well, there is always a greater demand for large, single cakes. It s on again -yummy, yummy cake decorating. Kids come along and decorate a cup-cake and then eat it! We are looking for any cake decorating donations. On the day, we are also looking for donations of plain cupcakes to decorate. Contact me! Convenor: Sara Quinn saraquinnpsychology@gmail.com Teddies looking for love Unwanted soft toys at home? Is there ever such a thing? Give them a new life, donate them to the Adopt-A-Teddy Stall!
