we are organising an event in our school to raise money for some tools and equipment needed to renovate an area behind the school so it can be used for reading, planting vegtables, using the pond to help with science etc. Any one got any ideas on what to do? it could be a competition of something, and if you think of a competition please give some type of prize idea as well. it has to be of little expense and able to make money. thanks.

My best friend had a good deal of luck raising money by auctioning off cakes. Cakes can be made inexpensively, and with time and effort, they can be works of art!
Our school has snack Fridays...the students from one class each Friday is asked to bring in a dozen treats. Those treats are then sold for a quarter during recess. It doesn't seem like much, but if you consider each child can bring in $3-$6, that can add up pretty quickly. If you need to do it faster, you could have a snack MONTH, in which a classroom a day is asked to bring in and sell the treats.
Good luck!
Autograph auction. Have your class members, teachers, and boosters write to their favorite authors/astronauts/sports stars, etc. and ask for help in achieving their worthy goal and request an autograph to help raise funds. The letter-writing can be a school activity--who writes letters anymore?--graded by teachers and actually educational. This may take a few months but you will be surprised at the response. After a reasonable amount of time, host an auction where your community can bid on the autographs. This is also great PR since your local newspaper can cover the student letters and the actual event.
In my school an effective way of raising funds has been a non-uniform day. Each child wears their own clothes for a day and brings in �?. If your school doesn't have a uniform choose to have a mad hair, mad socks or wear something red, day and ask for the �? contribution from each child. Good luck.

I currently have a fundraiser for schools. The schools would sell the Summer Bridge workbook series. They are for children entering PreK through 8th grade. They are educational workbooks that the students would complete over the summer. You would earn $1 per book sold. (There are no other charges)
Supply-n-Learn.com
You can email me for the forms that would go home to the parents. (It's a fundraiser but also very educational)
The children at our school had the idea of a sponsored peppermint suck! They were each given a Polo and had to see how long they could make it last. They have also done sponsored reads, fancy dress competitions on a theme (favourite books etc) and, best of all, sponsored silences!
you should find the right answer by looking at sites and ideas presented at http://novelfundraising.com
there are lots f unique working ideas , check some of the pages over there.

If talking secondary school the sixthformers (guys and girls... could do a swimsuit car wash.
That would raise money. Ethically speaking if they are flirty and up for it fine... (kinda stuff they do in foam parties anyway.
How about under18s rave/gig/disco (especially as difficult to get into a club)... make it a foam party.
You did not place your age group so difficutl to post proper answers.
Things like signed something fro a clebrity someone may know are good... Prize costs nothing but valuable.
Henna tattoos allowed in school (ie the kids all have tattoos ... that last a month) for a fee.
Poker is getting popular...
Do like a tournament so like a quiz or bingo.
You pay an entry fee.
and the prize is a percentage or something donated like a free adventure sports session in rutrn for being allowed to advertise in school or sponsorship
The poker also helps social skills and reading people. Plus mental artithmatic
Use the pond as a focus and draw it on squared paper. People buy a square to find the fish and the person who buys the predetermined square gets a portion of the money raised - depends on how much you charge per square.
It depends on what are the interests of the people in your lace. If they like music, you can organize a mini concert. If you know some friends with bands, talk with them for performing free. It could be a raffle, a presentation of a play or a film showing. Cash might be the best prize so they can do anything they want with it (I mean good wants) or you can give away educational prizes like books.
3 on 3 basketball, eating contests, tug of war, car wash, food, shows, but all these things need to pat to get in to them
Check with your local grocery stores some will donate gift certificates you can have a raffle and sell tickets. Ask your local business owners to donate ,beauty shops barbers etc.
Good luck.
you could do an auction(have buisnesses donate items for it) , a fifty fifty raffel, a raffel w/ prizes donated by businesses, bingo(again w/ donated items from schools) .. or research into large scale buisnesses that help w/ fundraisings for schools(such as buisnesses that will give the school a cut of however much money they made from the schools fundraiser type thing; some have collecting empty printer cartridges to be recycled and so on).....
