All pre-schools will win in voucher collect
ALL pre-schools on the island will have the opportunity to win school supplies thanks to the Sigma Group, which will donate £5,000-worth of equipment via a coupon collect in The Guernsey Press.
Whichever school collects the most coupons will win the first prize of £1,200. Second prize is £800 and third prize £500.
However, the remaining £2,500 will be split equally between the rest of the schools.
Glue, paper, glitter, paint, pens and pencils are just a few of the products that can be bought.
'Every school is a winner,' said Robert Sillars, chairman and CEO of Sigma.
'Sigma believes passionately in education for all children and pre-school is a fundamental foundation for later education.
'This competition is a good way of helping children by giving them the correct tools.
'There was a very positive response last year and we expect this year to be the same.'
Michele Hockey, account manager at Sigma, said they wanted to do something that would benefit all pre-schools in Guernsey.
'It's a really exciting initiative because everyone gets a percentage of the pot.'
Education account manager Yolanda Le Tissier said the competition gave pre-schools the opportunity to encourage creativity in their children.
'Last year, the paint and glitter were particularly popular among the winners. I think this gives them a chance to shine creatively and allows them to exercise different skills.'
Coupons will appear in the Guernsey Press from Monday until 21 March.
