The Hubbub appeal ended on 20th July\u00a0and sadly we didn\u2019t meet our (very ambitious) target of \u00a38k which means that payment will not be taken for the online pledges. We always knew it would be a big challenge. \u00a0However, we\u2019ve been delighted with the level of support we\u2019ve received from all areas of the community. Several people who made pledges have told us they wish Mayfield to have the money anyway, to spend on projects to support and encourage reading in the school. \u00a0 Thank you so much to everyone who supported the appeal.<\/p>\n

We’re in the Cambridge Independent:<\/p>\n

The Perse School have given us a lot of help with this project – find out more on their website: \u00a0The Perse School Website\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Huge thanks to everyone who has pledged so far and in particular The Haunted Bookshop<\/a><\/strong> for their incredibly generous \u00a3500 pledge. \u00a0Remember, even if you can’t pledge you can help by spreading the word far and wide.<\/p>\n

Our crowdfunding site is now live! \u00a0#Readinbus Hubbub Site<\/a> <\/strong>\u00a0Here’s how you can help us to make the bus a really special resource for Mayfield:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pledge a donation – it doesn’t have to be much, every little really does count.<\/li>\n
  2. Share the project far and wide and you could be come the Greatest Influencer. Info about how to share via email and social networks is in this\u00a0document:\u00a0Hubbub Information<\/a><\/span> \u00a0Email your friends and relatives and ask your employer if they would like to sponsor a local project; we will be giving publicity to significant donors (if they’d like it, anonymous is fine too).<\/li>\n
  3. Don\u2019t stop at your own network – ask your network to share with their networks<\/li>\n
  4. Add your unique link to your email signature and your social media profiles<\/li>\n
  5. If you Tweet include @hubbubnet and Hubbub will re-tweet. Including @theperseschool would also be fab as they have given us a lot of support with the project.<\/li>\n
  6. Don\u2019t just do all this stuff once! We only have until the deadline of 20th July to raise the money so please send out a few updates to your network during the next few weeks to keep the momentum going.<\/li>\n
  7. There are rewards!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Time is of the essence! \u00a0We have a strict deadline of 20th July by which to reach our minimum target of \u00a38k. \u00a0If we don\u2019t reach the target we don\u2019t receive a penny of the money and the project will not go ahead as the school does not have any spare money with which to make up any shortfall.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Thank you!<\/p>\n

    Together with The Perse School we are hoping\u00a0to raise\u00a0\u00a38,000 to decorate the outside of the Mayfield Reading Bus, which will create an inviting space to encourage pupils to read. \u00a0This will have a lasting impact on the children, firing their imaginations, developing their literacy skills and inspiring a life-long love of reading.<\/p>\n

    If we reach our minimum target we’ll be able to get the old youth bus decals stripped off, the bus surface prepared and new pupil-designed Alice in Wonderland themed decals installed. \u00a0If we beat our target the new decals will be able to cover some of the window area to make the design really eye-catching. \u00a0If we do even better we’ll be able to buy more books to stock our bookshelves inside.<\/p>\n

    The Reading Bus has been wonderful addition to Mayfield Primary School, and we are excited to have this opportunity to make it an even more special part of the site. \u00a0An exciting, colourful bus decorated with the children\u2019s own artwork will encourage more pupils to use this space and explore the books inside, sparking their interest in literature and independent learning. \u00a0The wrap will also protect the fabric of the bus from the elements. \u00a0By donating to our Reading Bus or spreading the word about this project, you will enhance facilities and experiences available to all children at Mayfield Primary.<\/p>\n
