Top Notch School Event

S

chool Events are those activities that we have like an award ceremony, End of session party, Carol Service, Open Day, Cultural day, Children's day and the likes.

School events are actually a means of publicizing your school, it tells me what kind of school this is, where this school is going in the nearest future.

Parents gets to invite other parents, child's family relations get to come around, societal figures may come, it may get to be on the Internet, etc as the world is going global etc.

With all this we wouldn't want to leave a wrong or bad impression on the hearts on everyone.

We need to identify :

What kind of event are we holding?  ( is it end of session, PTA night, Children's day, etc)

Outline WHY do we want to hold this event? (Aims, objectives, goals, of the event)

Who are we expecting at our event? ( list out all the names of the invitees and they must be relevant to the goal of the event)

How long will this event take? ( is it in Hours/ days/weeks? )

Who can handle the planning of this event well amongst all the available hands with me? ( maybe a teacher, head teacher, who is best at event planning that will all become a member of the events planning committee after identifying them, your number of committee is dependent on the size of the event, elect the proactive, efficient member to assist the Chairman of the Committee, or to Chair the Committee)

The Committee are to identify:

What do we need to have a successful event( the relevant resources needed to meet the outlined goal of the event - the colours, environment, location, venue, Master of Ceremony (MC), programme of the day, food, decoration, power supply, gifts, security,music, etc)

How do we get them?

How much will they cost?

Draft a budget for the event?

Send an invites to all the invitees
