There are other ways you can help raise money for the school without giving up your time:
Easy Fundraising
Whenever you buy anything online - from your weekly shop to your annual holiday - you could be raising money for our PTA. There are nearly 3,000 retailers on board ready to make a donation, including Amazon, John Lewis, Aviva, Domino's Pizza and Sainsbury's – it doesn't cost you a penny extra! It's really simple, all you have to do is:
1. Join. Head over to www.easyfundraising.org.uk and choose Halling Primary School PTA as your chosen cause. You need to register for free before you begin your shop.
2. Shop. Every time you shop online, go to easyfundraising first, pick the retailer you want and start shopping.
3. Raise money. After you’ve checked out, that retailer will make a donation to your good cause for no extra cost whatsoever.
Nearly New Uniform Sale
We will be starting a nearly new sale of second-hand uniforms in the new year. - If you have any donations of clothes that your children have grown out of, please speak to a member of the PTA.
Stamptastic
Children need to have their uniform labelled when they come to school. We have teamed up with Stamptastic who offer a fantastic range for labelling all of your child's belongings and the best bit is we receive up to 30% cash back on your purchase.

UK COMPANIES’ MATCHING GIFT SCHEME
Many companies will help support charities/schools through a matched giving scheme, whereby they will match gifts donated by their employees. Some companies have formal schemes for matched funding, while others may consider each request on its own merits. In many cases, participating companies will match an employee’s donation pound for pound up to a set amount. A number of organisations will even double-match. Below is a list of companies which we understand will match the charitable gifts of their employees. If your company is not listed, please contact your Human Resources department to enquire if such a scheme exists.
If you were to run a stall at an organised event, your employer may match the takings from the day - it's worth finding out about!!!
If you are interested in donating through the matching gift scheme, please contact your Human Resources department for a form which needs to be completed and sent to us. By using this scheme you can make your gift worth even more to us.
