Annual Giving Campaign 2025-26:

​

This year’s annual giving campaign aims to enhance our playground with a new merry-go-round. Spinning features are popular on most playgrounds for children of all ages. 

​​

Our goal for this project is to provide more opportunities to have fun and at the same time allow students to develop their agility, coordination and sense of balance.  When kids see exercising as an enjoyable experience that builds strength, it encourages them to remain active as they get older.   

​

This upgrade is part of a larger plan to improve the asphalt playing area, a ramp allowing ADA access to the playground, climbing features by the sand play area, an expanded obstacle course, and trails around the playground. If you would like to know more about or help support any of these improvements, please let us know.

Fundraising Goals

We are hoping to raise $10,000 for this campaign. The Village School and Village School Foundation will help fund any costs that go beyond this level. The proposed changes will bring more excitement and fun for students on the playground. We hope you will join us in our efforts to provide new playground equipment at The Village School.

How The Funds Will Be Used

Funds will be used for preparation of the space, and purchase delivery, and installation of the new equipment. The merry-go-round will require a small expansion of the wood chip playground area. We hope to complete the fundraising by February. If funds are collected, we plan to install over the summer.

Importance of 100% Participation

The Village School has implemented many major capital projects to improve our site in recent years with pandemic funds. With the expenditure of the last of our pandemic funds this year, we will need more support from families to continue improvements to our site. This is a great opportunity to help your children’s school.​​​​​​​
