CPAC BUDGET

​Carisbrooke Parents and the surrounding community are exceptionally generous with their donations to the school.  
​Throughout the years CPAC has managed to undertake a number of significant projects aimed to enhance your child's overall learning experience.  
Our annual projects are identified through discussions with parents, students and the School. 

HOW DO WE SET THE BUDGET

The CPAC budget is compiled over a number of months with a DRAFT presented at the September CPAC meeting, and the final Budget approved at the October CPAC meeting. All parents are invited to CPAC meetings, and it is a useful opportunity to ask questions regarding both fundraising and proposed projects. The CPAC budget typically consists of five categories: fundraising, annual expenses, operating budget, teacher requests and parent requests. 

Our 2022-2023 CPAC budget was approved on November 1st, 2022. Should you wish to see a copy, please email info@carisbrookepac.ca

FUNDRAISING

Fundraising is undertaken every year and throughout the year.  Our largest fundraiser is Fun Lunch.  Other fundraisers include the Card Project, apple sales, spirit wear sales and other.  Funds raised in each year will go towards funding CPAC projects and activities for the following  year. ​

PROPOSED BUDGET
2023-2024
