Splashdown

Term 1 was all about preparing a stall for the fun fair.  Room 11 decided on a 'dunk tank' and made an effective proposal to the PTA.  The class created a booking system so the public could pay to sit on the tank as well as having celebrities like Mr Millward and Mr McGowan.  It was an extremely cool and rewarding experience.



We studied brochures so we could create an effective one to entice customers to book a place on our tank.  It worked we sold all
our spots!



We needed to borrow $360 from the PTA to hire the tank so our proposal had to be convincing.  We organised ourselves into groups to handle different things such as finance, publicity and prizes etc.  It worked as we clearly proved that we could get the money back and help make the fun fair even more attractive by dunking teachers!!  We created a logo for our company 'Splashdown'.  We studied modern posters and created this awesome poster which generated a lot of buzz and interest for the tank.



We created a t-shirt each for ourselves for the day to help advertise our stall and we had to write letters to persuade teachers to sit on the tank.  Describing them as 'celebrities' worked!



Our hard work and creative skills were recognised by 'NZBusiness' magazine and we had an awesome article printed.
