Who does what?
It’s
important to divide up the responsibilities so that one person isn’t
left doing all the work!
Why not set up a committee? We suggest that this is run by pupils, with
a member of staff involved. Each person can have a specific area or areas
of responsibility such as:
- Booking venues e.g the school hall and any necessary equipment
- Creating posters to advertise your event
- Selling tickets to an event or raffle tickets
- Photocopying and distributing sponsor forms
- Recruiting volunteers to help on the day
- Planning the budget for the event - what will it cost to run and how much will it make?
- Liaising with the Headteacher, catering staff, cleaning staff and any other members of staff who may be affected or involved
- Recruiting people e.g to run stalls or games at a fete
- Coordinate any required music or entertainment
- Someone to chair any committee meetings and a secretary to note any actions from the meetings
Everyone can be involved, whether they are taking part in the day or planning beforehand. It’s a fantastic opportunity for pupils to broaden their skills, work as a team and build relationships with other members of the school community.
