Dear Parents and carers,
We’re excited to inform you that the Friends of Bottisham Village College are holding our first Virtual Duck Race. You can buy a duck (or ducks - there’s no limit to how many you can purchase) online for £3 each at
https://www.balloonrace.net/fobvc and can choose the colour of your duck, as well as its nickname. You can even leave a personalised message to cheer them on.
The race will take place from 1pm on Wednesday 5th November to 1pm on Friday 7th November. You can check your duck’s progress at any time by visiting the website above. The ducks will move twice every hour, so you will be able to see movement at 25 past and 55 past the hour. The finish of the race will be shown live in the Evans Auditorium on Friday 7th November at 12.55pm.
The prizes for winning ducks are as follow:
1st place - a golden rubber duck for the winner, a week's skip the queue pass for the winner and a friend, plus a rubber duck for every member of the winner's form (or 30 rubber ducks to distribute as you wish, if the winner isn't a student).
2nd place - a silver rubber duck for the winner, a week's skip the queue pass for the winner and a friend, plus mini resin ducks for every member of the winner's form (or 150 mini resin ducks to distribute as you wish, if the winner isn't a student).
3rd place - a metallic black rubber duck for the winner, a week's skip the queue pass for the winner and a friend, plus duck stickers for every member of the winner's form (or 100 duck stickers to distribute as you wish, if the winner isn't a student).
Plus, there will be a bonus prize for the best duck name, as chosen by Mr Compton.
We hope you will join us in the fun of the Virtual Duck Race to help us raise vital funds for resources and enrichment to benefit all the students at Bottisham Village College.
Thank you for your support.
Friends of Bottisham Village College.
