And that's a wrap on our Raphaeli Art Auction...
We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who helped make the auction possible.
To all of the incredible artists who so generously donated their beautiful work, thank you for sharing your talent and supporting our school community.
A special thank you to Helen Melon Properties for opening their doors to us for our opening evening during the Plett ARTS Festival Twilight Meander. Thank you also to Forest Gate, Plettenberg Bay and Gees Kombucha for generously sponsoring the beverages for the evening.
We would also like to thank Finest Kind for the soft cheese, Yolande Grobler from House of Gather for the beautiful flowers, Suzette at Suzette Catering for the glasses, and Tuchinca, one of our Raphaeli parents, for the platters and vases. Thank you all for generously sponsoring these special touches for the evening.
And to all the parents, community members and friends who helped with the planning, organisation, set-up and coordination of the exhibition, we are so grateful for all the time and effort that went into making it happen.
And, of course, thank you to every person who placed a bid. Your support has made a real difference.
Together, we raised a substantial amount for our Olive Tree Fund, helping provide bursary support that can give a child the opportunity to attend Raphaeli and continue their educational journey when financial circumstances might otherwise make that difficult. 🌿
Thank you for supporting the art, the artists, our school and, most importantly, our children.
