This year’s Oktoberfest raised £25,500 !!!

And here at the Mog Chronicle we have a few ideas about what the money we raised should be spent on. Here are some of them.

We think it should be spent on the library to buy more books.

We also think it should be spent on resources such as glues, colouring pencils and many other types of pens.

Year 6 teacher Mr. Temi thinks that there should be an iPad for every child at the school.

We asked Jon, one of the parents who runs the Mog Chronicle, and he thought that there should be more computers.

We at the Mog Chronicle agree because it’s always a dash to who can get the computers first during our weekly journalism club.

We also think it should be spent on games and fun activities.

Also it should be spent on keeping kids safe and fidget toys such as fidget spinners.

Jude, in Year 5, thinks there should be more calm corners and more places for kids with anxiety.

He also wanted to see more rooms for children with disabilities including hidden disabilities like ADHD.

In assembly on Friday, Ms. Chantelle announced that there will now be boxes containing things that kids can use for wet play.

This was something Felix, in Year 5, thinks Oktoberfest money definitely should be used for, but he also wanted to see some invested in better school dinners.

Arlo, in Year 5, thinks that the school needs a trampoline and Kiaan, also in Year 5, had loads of ideas including that there should be more balls, a video game room and, like Felix, better school dinners.

Ralph, in Year 5, who is a keen cyclist thinks that what JKPS really needs is a velodrome containing many good bikes.

His younger brother, Lorcan, in Year 3, would like to see the money spent on sports facilities like more footballs.

Miguel, in Year 5, said he would like to see a bigger basketball hoop and a better football pitch.

Morris, in Year 3, had one of the most interesting suggestions of all.

He think that the money raised on Oktoberfest should be spent on McDonald’s meals for all the children.

This idea caused a little bit of chaos and controversy with some other students thinking this was not the best use of the cash.
