Hoopa bars are back !

Hoopa Bar

This March, the PTA will be running its second Hoopa Bar fundraiser. This is a great way to help the school raise money for the OPAL playground scheme – and for children to win some special prizes. Also – did we mention chocolate?

The PTA will be selling special Hoopa chocolate bars for £2.50 each. A limited number of bars will contain, hidden under the wrapper, a golden ticket – any child who finds one can claim a special prize from the mysterious Hoopa Loompa: an invite to his Summer Spectacular Lunch.

Last year, we sold the bars at an after school sale – and the demand was, sadly, higher than we could meet. This year we are selling bars online and in advance, where they will be available to buy until the end of day on Sunday 16th March.

The bars will then be delivered to the children, via classrooms, on 31st March. Each bar should raise around £1 for the PTA, which this year is funding equipment for the OPAL playground project.

Hoopa Bars – £534 Raised

Thank you to everyone who bought our Hoopa Loompa bars yesterday. With your help we raised a fantastic £534 to support the school – thank you! And thanks also to our volunteers who designed, bought, re-wrapped, and sold them.

We want to offer our apologies to those who were unable to buy a Hoopa bar. The demand was far greater than at any previous after-school sale, and far exceeded our expectations and ability to supply this time around.

We also understand that holding sales after school only made it impossible for some kids to buy one – and we hope to be able to work around this by offering more ways to buy in advance, as well as more stock, in future. This will require us to acquire a specific lottery licence, which wasn’t possible at short notice this time.

But we will need your help. We are all volunteers, and to supply many hundreds of bars, to handle licensing, pre-ordering, wrapping and distribution will require more people to pitch in – so can you help us make our next sale even bigger and better? You can reach us via email, or join our WhatsApp volunteer group – all the details are here.

Hoopa Bar Information

Hoopa Bar

This Thursday, at school pickup, the PTA will be holding a sale of pre-loved costumes for World Book Day. We will also be holding our first ever Hoopa Loompa bar fundraiser.

This is a chance to support the rebuilding of the school’s peace garden, while also getting some chocolate – and a chance to win prizes.

We will have around 250 (updated: 270) unique Hoopa-branded bars for sale. Hidden within 10 of them are Golden Tickets – each of which wins a special prize for the finder and extra Golden Time for their entire class.

Each bar will cost £2.50.

As we have fewer bars than children in the school, we’re asking the community to buy thoughtfully – and very strictly no more than one per child. We want as many families as possible to be able to take part.

If this first sale is a success, we hope to run a larger sale – with opportunities for children and families to buy at different times, and perhaps with ordering in advance – in future years.

Allergy Information

The Hoopa bars are Galaxy milk chocolate. Ingredients are listed below. We will have a limited number of dairy-free bars available – please ask us for a swap after buying.

SUGAR, SKIMMED MILK POWDER, COCOA BUTTER, COCOA MASS, MILK FAT, WHEY PERMEATE (FROM MILK), PALM FAT, EMULSIFIER (SOYA LECITHIN). Contains vegetable fats in addition to cocoa butter.
