A huge thank you to all who contributed to our Auction of Promises on 8th November. It was a really fantastic night, raising over £2000 for the Pre-School!
Special thanks must go to our generous donors, who ensured we had really special lots to auction; our enigmatic auctioneer, Richard Leverington, who kept the bids in order; all our hard working Committee members for organising the event; and Sharon Harrison (and family!) who put in so much time and dedication to the night.
But the biggest Thank you must go to all of you who attended the Auction and bid so generously. What a night it was!

WOW! Just when we thought we’d received all the fantastic promises from our generous Donors, in comes one final lot to blow your football socks off!!
Derby County Football Club has kindly promised a signed ball, a signed shirt and 4 Premier Lounge match tickets. These tickets offer some of the best hospitality in the club with seats right behind the dugout. What better way to support those Rams?!
What a night it’s going to be! Make sure you get your tickets for Saturday’s Auction. Someone is going to be walking away with a wonderful promise.

Previous Auction of Promises held by Rolleston Pre-School have been a great success, with lots of money raised for the Pre-School, brilliant lots being donated by local companies and parents alike, and everyone who attended having a fantastic time!
The 2008 Auction of Promises looks to be the best yet – with amazing lots including spa days, family days out, free tutoring, skip hire and even a hot air balloon ride! There is bound to be something you’ll want to bid generously for. Check out the page on the menu above to see up-to-date listings on all lots.
We are still looking for donations for this event.

The Pre-School is a registered charity and relies on fundraising to provide a quality local service.
Tickets for the Auction will be going on sale in September. Get yours quickly to avoid disappointment! It’s going to be a great night! See you there.
