The Mini-Bus Fund Raising Campaign April 1979

Hinckley Times Feature 13th April 1979

Over 1,000 people attended Newbold Verdon Primary School’s Spring Fayre, boosting their fund for a new mini-bus by £850. This brings the total amount so far raised to £2,000.

The fayre was one of a number of fund raising events held since last November at the school to collect money to buy the mini-bus.

Stalls selling plants, toys, hand-made crafts, groceries and refreshments were tremendously successful.

The bus will be used for transporting the children in the school to the various places of interest in the locality.

The school are already looking round for a suitable vehicle.
