Permission to fund raise for a tour
Fund raising for a tour may take place with the Principal's permission and must not conflict with other school fundraising, and it would normally only be granted to cover the costs of overseas tours. Money raised offsets the overall tour costs of all pupils touring as an official EHS group, is paid into a Tour Fund Account administered by the school, and the Deputy-Principal arranges its distribution.
