Food For Thought… Time vs. Money, Donations vs. Volunteering


Since September we've been asking parents and carers how we can improve the HTSA and a number of issues have come up more than once. Issues such as this one:

Some parents have time but lack funds to donate; others can afford to donate but don't have time to volunteer. 

Several parents in the second category have gone so far as to ask: "Why can't we just donate instead of volunteering?"

So in reply to that, here's our first DIRECT SPONSORSHIP opportunity: a musical curriculum called Charanga as requested by Mrs Kimani, who writes:


Before half term I mention the possibility of the HTSA supporting with the cost of a new music curriculum to supplement learning in music at our school.

Ms Sawyers and I went on an introductory course and we both were extremely impressed with Charanga. This is a specialist new music curriculum, the scheme is based on listening, appraising, creating and exploring a range of musical genres. This curriculum can be used by Nursery - Y6.


The cost of subscribing to Charanga for one year is £150.

Thanks Mrs Kimani.

Would anyone like to sponsor this directly? We are offering the opportunity to sponsor in part (any amount from £10) or to sponsor the entire project.



P.S Don't forget we already have sponsorship opportunities and advertisng space to sell on our website
