BAKE SALE

As part of our Home Learning this year we got  to do a fundraiser of our choice. So we decided on a bake sale. This year we have to do a minimum of ten challenges for Home learning and this counts as one of them.

On the 19th of March, Xian and Louise went to Grace's house to bake for the Bake sale.
Once we were there, we started playing pictureka. But wait! Someone was missing! Kyla.
We had to start baking or else we wouldn't get anything done. While everything was in the oven we went to get hot chips for lunch. When we came back we were surprised to see someone sitting on the couch talking to my sister. It was Kyla! We sat on the floor with our hot chips and started eating.

 After that we set up a table for decorating. Caitlin (Grace's sister) told us that everything had to be perfect or otherwise children wouldn't buy it. But as soon as Caitlin went to go to her friends house we went crazy with decorations. We were so excited when we finished!

When Monday finally arrived we were very prepared. Then all of a sudden everybody was nervous about not selling anything. The clock struck 10.30 so we set up our stall. There were people rushing from everywhere to buy food. Yeaahh! Within about 10 minutes we had sold out of everything. We earned $70.80c. We thought we would get a maximum of  $50 so we were ecstatic!
