My reply to Brons email

Hi Bron,
Wow that great, and great contingency plan.
I will email Christian now and see what he thinks.
I will get back to you as soon as I hear from him.

If he is able to do this Sunday, what the best way to get you, as being a short week we have a short time to get the participants- and I don't want to stress you with too much extra work,.

So if I can do anything at the school to help you this week let me know.
My phone contacts are below, or you can text me and I will call you.

Hey Karen,
I talked to the principle on Thursday and she is supportive of the idea, although is concerned about the time line we have to work with.

I still have to talk to the head of our Arts department, and I am doing that on Tuesday, she has been away for the last 3 days of last week, but is expecting me then.

If we do get the full go ahead, would you be ready to do it next sunday? (as in 7 days time), cause if we dont do i then, then we won't have 2 full days before the 23rd

The other idea was do we maybe have Christian there on the day showing what he does and have people sign up for it then, and then just have another day when we get together and have a stall to sell these?

Let me know what would be best!!

Cheers Bron

Hi All,
Still pushing forward with getting art workshops happening and the development of art to sell at the auction on time. I am pushing ahead and I am hoping to hear from Bron on the weekend re: particpants and space to hold the workshops.
Also for those of you who I have annoyed today by inviting you to jump on the blog and contribute - that would be very helpful if you have ideas on how we can advance this project further.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Karen

Hi Christian-
Hope you are having fun in Blackall.

I have a couple of answers for you from the student trying to organise the event with the school

1.If we need 2 full days, then I suggest Sundays (if that works) if not they will most likely have to run in the afternoons, as the majority of the school is involved in sports that happen throughout the day on Saturdays.

2.I will also talk to our art teachers and see if we can use our art rooms, if not we could use our Auditorium foyer at school (that can save the transport part, which may encourage more participants). And I will try to get an idea of how many participants as soon as I can!!

I will follow up this week and get the answers to you as soon as I know.

Hey Karen,
We thought that we would try and run it through the arts committee instead of the boys committee, but they are very busy leading up to the wetlands festival. So what i am doing is just going to put the proposal through to our principle and then just running it anyway. With any luck I should have this sorted within the week, but that depends on how fast I can get in to see the principle.

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner!
