We are recovering from the Mount Pleasant Primary School Quiz night. Adam's class has been give the responsibility of hosting social events for the school this year and the core group of parents from his class who are running with this portfolio decided to put together a fun quiz night for parents of the school. When I heard about this I felt that I couldn't really sit on my complete Power Point Quiz presentations from last year without at least offering to hand them over. Well, as it happens, my offer snowballed into my revamping a past quiz to suit this area and culture, getting involved in organising the event, setting up on the night and then co-hosting as quiz master with one of the teachers, Mr Clee.
The event was great fun with 100 parents in attendance and great prizes donated from local retailers. We held the quiz in the local bowling club and made good use of the bar facilities for a great evening of questions, answers, drinking and fun. As always, it was a big task keeping the evening flowing smoothly, drawing raffle prizes, playing bar games and mingling. Rob was the very efficient score keeper and the whole evening was a great success.
It was a good way for us to meet more of the parents and get involved in the working cogs of the school. I did feel very tired today but relieved that it had all been such a success.
