PTFA Fundraising Calendar 2026 – Update and Thank You

We extend a sincere thank you to everyone who has donated vouchers, helped spread the word, or sent messages of support for the PTFA Fundraising Calendar 2026. The response from our Carmel community has been incredibly generous and much appreciated.

Your contributions are building a strong prize pool of 30 vouchers – one for each day of the calendar draw. Each donation represents a valued act of support for our school, and will directly benefit students through PTFA-funded Sr Mary Justine Scholarships and the development of a new outdoor activities area.

Updated dates for the Calendar Raffle

We have made a small but important change to the timing of the raffle. The Calendar Raffle will now run from 1–30 September 2026, rather than August.

This adjustment has been made to avoid the school holiday period, ensuring more families are able to take part without competing priorities. It also allows:

  • More time for families to purchase tickets at a convenient time
  • Greater opportunity for students to promote and support the fundraiser within their year groups
  • Increased visibility of the prize pool across our wider community

The raffle format remains the same, with 30 daily prize draws across the month of September.

What to expect

Tickets are $10 each and go into the draw for all 30 days, giving each ticket 30 chances to win. Prizes include vouchers generously donated by local businesses and members of our community who wish to support Carmel College.

Tickets are limited and will be available soon – once sold, no further tickets will be issued.

Thank you again for your continued support of the PTFA and our students.
