FUNKY FUNFAIR  By Stephen malidina, lauren Shannon, Charlie o’Doherty, lucy Shannon and aimee mai carr

WHAT INSPIRED US One day, we were discussing ideas for the Jessies and Charlie mentioned a funfair. Everyone loved the idea! We formed a group and got started. We worked for weeks until the project was finished. It took a long time but we managed to make a project we’re proud of. We hope you enjoy it!

About Funky Funfair Our project is the Funky Funfair. The Funky Funfair is a mix of classic carnival games, newly made games and maths related games. We are planning to make a lot of our games using simple materials that anyone would find at home and this should reduce costs. Some of the games include, an improvisation of coconut shy (using a similar shaped object and a ball), throw the ball into the cup, raffles, prizes and much more!!

Finance and marketing We are making a lot of our things for the funfair but our main expenses will be the materials used to make our stalls, the materials used for the games, the prizes and the raffle tickets. We have written to the Board of Management requesting a loan of about €250 to finance our project. The Tuc shop is paid separately. We are also making a VIP pass which means you will get a few free sweets and a chance to skip the line in two games.
