9 Popular School Holiday Fun Ideas

The school holidays are coming up and you are looking for some popular fun ideas to add to your holiday entertainment calendar?

Bubbling With Energy has over 27 years experience in providing entertainment products for clients all over Australia. Based on that experience we have put together a tool kit of school holiday fun ideas. They will help you to provide a safe and memorable experience for your young clients during the school holidays.

These ideas are suitable for holiday play centres, youth clubs, church youth groups, child care centres, council events, recreation parks, family restaurants, and aquatic centres.

However, before we start, decide on what age groups you are catering for, what size play area is available, whether it is outdoors or indoors, and what your budget is? Some organisations also theme their events. This can also impact on what amusement devices are hired.

School Holiday Fun Ideas Tool Kit

1 Water Fun

It’s summer and hot. Inflatable water slides are all the rage these days so why not set up a water slide in your back yard, park, recreation centre, child care or holiday play centre. Children never seem to tire of climbing the stairs and scrambling down the soft slides into a pool of water. Furthermore, you can get a small slide such as the Jump N Splash, the medium sized Whale Water Slide, or the giant Wild Rapids!

Click Water Slides for more ideas. If water slides do not suit your needs, check out our range of Dry Slides.

Pool and Aquatic Centres often hire our Sea Scramble or the Wipeout Pool inflatables which can actually be set up on the water!

2 Fun Run

Did you know you can get fun run courses with names like the Extreme Fun Run, the Toxic Shock or the Adrenaline Rush? Or, how about an inflatable Obstacle Maze. These entertainment devices will make your Fun Run an event to remember. The Fun Run design is only limited by your imagination.

Click Obstacle Courses for our exciting range of Fun Run ideas.

3 Themed Inflatables for the Littlies

How about themed jumping castles for the younger kids? Have themed jumping castle events designed featuring well known TV or Movie characters such as the Ninja Turtles, P J Mask, Octonauts or Disney’s Frozen (and many more). Add some carnival food to add to the fun.

See children’s jumping castles for theme ideas.

4 Inflatable Obstacle Courses

Set up a park lane of Obstacle courses with names like the Aqua Rush, the Toxic Wipeout Challenge (based on the popular TV show “Wipeout”), the excellent Ninja Warrior Obstacle Course (also based on a TV show), and the Adrenaline Rush Extreme obstacle course, which absolutely lives up to its name!

So, get ready for climbing walls, ladders, slides, tackling bags, jumping balls, popups and heaps of other obstacles you just can’t imagine till you experience them.

Click Inflatable Obstacle Courses for more details.

5 School Holiday Shopping Centre Fun

Depending on the area available, small and medium sized jumping castles are always a great hit in shopping centres. But you can add to the fun by theming the event. For example, create a Disney or Ninja character theme. Then, have a competition during the day for children who dressed up as their favourite character. We have Fairy Tale, Jungle Adventure, Princess, Ninja Turtle, Justice League, and a heap of other themed jumping castles and obstacle courses. They are very popular so book now to avoid missing out.

Add to the fun with Temporary Glitter Tattoos and Face Painters.

We can also provide carnival type activities like a circus train and carnival food such as fairy floss and sno cones.

See themed jumping castles for more shopping centre event details.

6 Inflatable Sports Fun

Help your budding matilda’s, wallabies, socceroo’s, kangaroo’s, golfers and other potential sporting greats achieve their dreams (or at least practice them) with an inflatable sports day.

Set up your sports field with our Inflatable Sports Zone (it has an indoor soccer, volley ball and basketball arena, and even a game of twister), and the Inflatable Golf Challenge, Basketball and Soccer Shootouts, the Inflatable Football Passing, and the Hippo Chow Down (based on the popular board game only more physical and interactive). We’ve also got Connect a Shot and the Human Wrecking Ball, and a myriad of other exciting sports fun devices.

Click Inflatable Sports for more School Holiday Fun Ideas.

7 Circus Ideas

Bubbling with Energy has a number of experienced performers to add more fun to your event. You can hire a clown, a magician, a temporary tattoo artist or face painter, a balloon artist, or an all rounder circus performer to entertain your school holiday fun clients. Additionally, tie it in with a circus themed castle or obstacle course. Then you will be providing heaps of memorable fun for the kids.

Click Circus for more School holiday fun ideas.

8 For the Older Kids

The Mechanical Bull, Mechanical Can, or Mechanical Snowboard or Surfboard Simulators are popular with the older kids. They also like interactive activities such as the inflatable Human Wrecking Ball challenge, Football Passing, and the Soccer Shootout. In fact, we have a whole range of sports related inflatables for hire.

We can also supply pinball machines, air hockey and pool tables for short term hires.

Click Sports Inflatables, Interactive Games and Arcade Games for even more School holiday fun ideas.

9 Large Family Fun Events

Councils and corporates can attract large crowds to School Holiday Fun events like a Water Park. This is where we take over a park, and set up a range of spectacular inflatables and other activities.

Alternatively, we can supply activities for a fun run obstacle course, dry slides, or sports themed activities as described earlier in this blog.

We specialise in large events and have the experienced staff and the professional expertise to help you create events which have the WOW factor.

Check out our Event Ideas for examples of what we can provide.

School Holiday Fun – Safety First

Successful Event Planning

Written by

Successful Event Planning

Successful event planning might be needed for a child’s birthday party, a company picnic, a child care centre celebration, a school fun day, a sports presentation or a major corporate event. Whatever it is, the same event planning principles will apply.

Bubbling With Energy have been assisting event planners such as parents, volunteers, social club secretaries, professional corporate event planners etc to plan all kinds of events for over 27 years.

Here are some event planning tips to make your next event successful.

What’s your plan?

The earlier you begin planning the better. In fact, from our experience the very best annual events are those where planning starts immediately after the last event.

Planning includes deciding on the event budget, purpose, who’s the audience, and marketing. It also covers what memorable activities will be booked, sponsorship, catering, and the venue.

The planning committee?

Don’t do it all yourself! Even for a family birthday or anniversary celebration you can delegate catering, greeting or cleaning duties to other family members. In fact, some people get annoyed when they are not asked!

Therefore, for larger events you need to develop and manage an enthusiastic committee of finance, marketing, volunteer coordinators, activity bookers, sponsor minders, etc.

Additionally, make sure you track your expenses and activities on an Excel spreadsheet or Project Planning tool.

Event activities

Successful Event Planning includes great activities. The memorable activities you book will depend on the purpose of the event, your audience, and whether it is an indoor or outdoor venue.

For instance, your purpose might be a fundraiser, a community fun day, a product or service brand activation or launch. It might also be a commemorative celebration, a themed activity, an exhibition, or even team building.

Indoor Activities

For indoor events consider entertainment such as roaming clowns, temporary tattoo artists (yes, they do wash off) or face painters.

Alternatively, if you are having a sports theme, Bubbling with Energy can also supply interactive games.  These include the inflatable basketball or soccer shootouts, football passing or the mini golf challenge.

Arcade games are also excellent indoor event ideas.

We also have small jumping castles which can fit into most indoor venues.

Outdoor Activities

For large corporate events and festivals and fetes, consider having carnival rides or a bank of dry or water slides and spectacular obstacles courses. Some of the latter include the Ninja Warrior Challenge (as seen on TV’s The Footy Show), the Extreme Fun Run, the Inflatable Maze, and the Toxic Shock Wipeout Challenge. These exciting names featured in your event advertising will attract visitors. They also add to the memorable experience every successful event planner seeks.

If you really want to go big try the Stunt Jump (yes, it’s a stunt pillow just like those used in high action TV shows or movies).

For school fun days, fundraisers, fetes and festivals consider hiring the famous Dunk Tank or Cash Grabber.

For smaller events, themed kids jumping castles such as Superhero and Disney inflatables are all the rage. They have theme names like World of Disney, Fairy Tale, Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles, and Justice League.

For adult parties hire the Inflatable Pub, or one of our mechanical bucking bull type devices. The latter are particularly popular at hens and bucks parties and anniversaries.

Planning a Successful Event – Marketing Tips

  • Use every media possible including FaceBook, Instagram, Pinterest, Newsletters, school/parent notices. Ask a sample of potential event visitors how they like to hear about events and follow that advice?
  • Media releases should feature the purpose of the event. For example, if you are raising funds for “Koalas burned in recent bushfires”, feature that in your copy. News outlets will grab emotional content like that.
  • Ask your suppliers, sponsors, and the venue, to feature your event on their websites.
  • Provide copy (including pics) for the “What’s on in XXXX” type websites. Can you imagine how attractive a photo of the Stunt Jump, or one of our large inflatables, will be on those websites.
  • You marketing should continue right up until the event starts. If it is an annual activity, the marketing should continue beyond the event to advertise next year’s activity.

Here is a Forbes magazine article about Marketing Successful Events.

Event Feedback

After the event seek feedback so that you can honestly congratulate your event planning assistants, and also improve it next time.

Automate all the event information so that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel when looking for successful event activities in the future.

Checklist for Hiring Amusement Devices

Written by

Hiring an Amusement Device Checklist

Whether you hire with us or not, Bubbling With Energy (BWE) want to make your amusement device hires as safe as possible. Here is an Amusement Hire Checklist. It will help you decide if you are using an appropriate and reputable company for your event. Furthermore, this is a generic list only, prepared from our extensive experience.

Also, for more information you can access further details via this amusement devices link to SafeWork. They are the government agency responsible for safety in NSW.

Our Amusement Device Checklist is applicable to hiring of inflatable jumping castles or inflatable obstacle courses. It is for where you will supervise the device yourself (allowed for smaller devices), or use a trained supervisor.

Amusement Device Checklist

Please ensure that:

  1. is a reputable amusement hire firm being used? Check that they have an ABN, public liability insurance?
  2. you have received notice of your booking, and an invoice?
  3. is the company an AM-SAFE Credentialed Operator. For instance BWE has been accredited under the AM-SAFE Safety Support Program. It means we are The Industry peak body, Australian Amusement Leisure and Recreation Association Inc.(AALARA), as a compliant provider of amusement, leisure and recreation services. This is in accordance with the Best Practice standards, established as being most appropriate to ensure that businesses provide at all times, the best possible management, operation and duty of care to their clients, guests and staff.
  4. the amusement device provider supplied instructions on proper operation of the device. For example, if you are not using a BWE supervisor in your jumping castle hire, on booking we give you access to a safety video. The video details how to monitor/supervise the inflatable to ensure your users are safe. BWE ground crew will still deliver and install the inflatable;
  5. does the device fit the allocated area? Do, check that it is free of overhead power lines, overhanging trees, debris etc?

Also ensure that:

  1. is the device clean and in good working order?
  2. have all electrical leads, generators etc been appropriately inspected and tagged?
  3. did you inspect the device prior to allowing patrons to use it? For example, this is to ensure it has no tears, trip obstacles, and has appropriate safety signage;
  4. has the device been properly secured? Also, have you been given instructions about what to do if the wind picks up. For example, BWE will provide you with a wind meter. Use this to personally monitor wind conditions on the day. For any hire, deflate the device if the wind reaches 30km/hour. Or use a Beaufort Scale – click this Beaufort Scale link.

Finally ensure that:

  1. the installer has completed an installation checklist (BWE use an online checklist)? Go through this checklist with the operator to ensure it has been completed.
  2. have safety barriers been set up, where applicable?
  3. are impact absorbing safety mats, that are at least 50mm thick, placed at entry and exit points?
  4. have sponsors been suitably recognised on or near the device;
  5. is an emergency exit plan in place?
  6. are device risk assessments readily provided if required?
  7. has appropriate insurance coverage been arranged if you are not using the amusement hire company staff to supervise the activity?
  8. the device is stored safely prior to pick up by the amusement hire company at the end of the event.

Also, check out our new Blog about a Checklist for Hiring a Mechanical Bucking Bull.

About Bubbling With Energy (BWE)

Finally, please be aware that in any industry, including ours, there are fly by night and disreputable operators. They might be cheap, but will take safety short cuts. This will put you and your children or other guests at risk. Also, their equipment will not be well maintained or safe, their staff will not be appropriately trained. Furthermore, they will not have the correct insurance coverage.

Bubbling With Energy Entertainment (link) , have been in operation for over 27 years. Above all, we take pride in ensuring our equipment is safe and well maintained.  Our staff are trained to help you have the best event possible.

 Also please note that Bubbling With Energy is working towards becoming a carbon neutral company (see Blog). Be assured that we have a social responsibility to help protect the environment. Apart from installing solar panels on our buildings, we also recycle our jumping castles for repair material, and are training our staff in ways to foster better use of our natural environment. Every booking you make with BWE contributes to the planting of trees in reforestation projects.

10 More Brilliant School Fete Stall ideas and tips you should try

Written by

10 More Brilliant School Fete Stall Ideas

This Blog follows on from our previous Blog called Brilliant School Fete Stall ideas and tips you should try.  Read it in conjunction with this one.

Need ideas for your school fete or carnival? Choose from these crowd-pleasing activities, marketing strategies and ideas!

1 All Day Ride Tickets

This one ranks highly among the More Brilliant Fete Ideas category. We have seen this done at many school fetes with great success.

Promote the Fete at least a month before the Fete date, and sell advance “All Day Ride” tickets for say $25. This allows ticket holders to ride any fete activity without paying more on the day. For a small fee, Bubbling With Energy can supply wrist bands for the All Day Ticket riders. This will ensure you have some advance funds prior to the event, and also ensures people turn up on the day.

On Fete Day, people can purchase the All Day Ride ticket for a higher price of say, $30.

You will need to set up a Ticket Booth for the event. Set up your own or we can supply it. Note – pre sales also ensure shorter lines at the ticket booth on Fete Day.

2 Food Glorious Food

Food is a great way to extend your fund raising. We have carnival food available such as Fairy Floss, Sno Cones and even a Popcorn machine.

Depending on the demographic of your school population, you can get parents to make (for sale) non messy foods such as spring rolls, samosas, or fish cakes etc, or the traditional sausage on a roll. Sell cans of drinks to go with the food.

3 Donation Bucket

Roster volunteers to stand at the entrance/exits of the Fete with a donation bucket to collect extra gold coins.

4 Performers

Here’s another brilliant fete stall idea. Invite a local dance group(s) to perform at the event and maybe set up a stall to advertise their dance group. This ensures more parents and family members come along. It’s also great for your pre Fete advertising.

5 Inflatable and Obstacle Course Sponsors

Invite say, a local Fitness Club to sponsor an inflatable jumping castle or obstacle course. We can attach their velcro backed signage to the amusement device they are sponsoring. As an added bonus, you can offer that they can do a fitness demonstration at the event.

Do ensure that any sponsors are acknowledged in event publicity.

6 Local Community Groups

Invite the local Scouts or Guides, Surf Lifesaving, and St Johns Ambulance to set up Recruitment Stalls at the Fete. They can do demonstrations of their particular activities e.g the St Johns or Surf Lifesaving volunteers can demonstrate how to use a defibrillator. Maybe the Scouts and Guides can teach dads and mums how to do a truckies hitch (a brilliant knot for tying loose materials to the family trailer).

All these extra people add to the excitement and fund raising opportunities of the event.

7 Amaze with the Maze

This is another brilliant fete idea. During Halloween a local school set up our Inflatable Maze as a Halloween Maze. You can guess what scary scenes were depicted in the maze dead end zones (excuse the pun). Depending on your event theme, it could be set up as an Australiana Maze, a Christmas in July Maze, a Learning Maze etc. It’s only restricted by your schools imagination.

8 Sports Skills Arena

Also under the more brilliant fete ideas category is a Sports Skills Arena. Children in your school undoubtedly play soccer, rugby league, basketball or even golf. Check out these Sports Inflatables which test the skills and stamina of your budding world champion players.

For the older event visitors, charge them to rodeo ride the mechanical bull, or any of our other “Mechanical” devices. All of these rides can have sponsors signage featured on them.

9 Sydney Water Stall

Invite Sydney Water to set up a stall to promote better water usage such as 4 minute showers. Maybe they will provide free water bottles.

10 Lucky Dip

What would a Fete be without a Lucky Dip? If you don’t want to make up your own, companies like Blueberry Express can supply Lucky Dip prizes. Set a reasonable fee for a dip in the Lucky Dip. Ensure you have a few larger prizes in there e.g a movie pass, a meat tray sponsored by a local butcher, a bottle of wine sponsored by the local bottle shop.

Planning a Corporate Christmas Party

Written by

Planning a Corporate Christmas Party

The year is coming to an end and you have the job of Planning a Corporate Christmas party event for your colleagues, to celebrate the past year.

Bubbling With Energy have lots of experience in helping people plan memorable events at times like this. Here are some tips:

Decide the date and venue?

This will impact on what kind of activities you will have at the event. For example, you may be using a large room at the office, a conference venue, a park, a restaurant, or a local community hall and outdoor area.

What’s your budget?

This will also impact on the food, drinks and activities.

Decide a theme.

This adds to the excitement, the design, and the uniqueness of the event. It could be a pink (or other colour) party, a letter of the alphabet party, a true-blue Aussie casual dress or national costume event, a fundraiser for a charity or major disaster event, a Christmas Mask or Bad Christmas outfit party, a pool party, or a fun in the outdoors event. See Event Birdie or StyleCaster for more theme ideas.

Who’s coming?

It may be staff only, or with their families, or you may be inviting valued clients to the event. Are there any with special food needs? The trick in planning and creating a memorable Corporate Christmas Party event is to match the activities at the event to the people who are coming. For example, companies such as Call Centres, where the majority of staff are Under 35’s, may prefer a more physical event.

6 Unique Corporate Christmas Party Ideas

Here are some amazing Corporate Christmas Party activity ideas to help you:

1 THE INFLATABLE PUB

Don’t hire a Pub … set up your own! We can install a medium or large sized inflatable Pub in a community hall or outdoor area. You can decorate it with your company, theme or “Merry Christmas” etc signage velcroed to the structure.

Add to the adult excitement with a mechanical bull, mechanical can, or even a mechanical football. Some companies also hire the Human Wrecking Ball or Human Whack a Mole activities from our Party range to add to the excitement of the event.

2 INDOOR CHRISTMAS PARTY IDEAS

Have you thought about having an entertainment activity such as a temporary tattoo artist (yes, the tattoos wash off); a roaming clown or magician; Santa Claus; a set of 1980’s style arcade games; or Face Painters Fun (for kids and adults).

You can also hire a cash grabber machine. You may have seen the cash grabber machine on TV. A contestant stands in the centre of the machine and has a certain time in which to catch the “money” being fast blasted around them. Substitute “money” with 50 or so pieces of coloured paper. On 2 or 3 of them offer prizes such as Christmas cookies, chocolates, or a day off!

3 COMPANY CHRISTMAS PICNIC

When Planning a Corporate Christmas Party you may decide to have a company picnic. But how can you give it the Wow factor? Adult and child jumping castles, spectacular dry or water slides, and challenging obstacle courses can add to the fun of a company picnic. Depending on the size and budget of your event, a variety of activities can be set up in a picnic area to entertain your guests.

Some companies also hire the famous Dunk Tank. See how much fun it is to “dunk” the CEO or a favourite Manager! Add some Carnival Food and a Roaming Santa and your day will be complete.

4 CHRISTMAS POOL PARTY

Did you know you can have a small or large inflatable water park set up on a swimming pool? Hire a private or council pool and we can set it up for an incredible day of fun.

5 CHRISTMAS SPORTS DAY

Set up a parade of Sports inflatables such as the soccer, basketball, football and golf shootouts; or the inflatable sports zone which comprises an inflatable indoor soccer arena with zones for volleyball, basketball and twister. It has the added challenge of doing those activities on a bouncy floor.

Alternatively we also have an inflatable Beach Volleyball arena.

6 CHRISTMAS PARTY NINJA WARRIORS CHALLENGE

You may have seen this on Channel 9’s Footy Show where we set up a challenging Ninja Warriors obstacle course which included the famous Stunt Jump! The Ninja Warrior Obstacle Course package includes challenges such as running, climbing, sliding, bouncing, jumping and stunt falling with our Toxic Water Slide, Toxic Wipeout Challenge, Toxic Radical Junior Obstacle Course and Stunt Jump! You can do the same course as Paul Vautin, Darryl Brohman and Erin Moran!

If you want a Corporate Christmas Party that no one will forget, the Ninja Warriors Challenge might be the ticket!

WHAT ABOUT YOUR OTHER CORPORATE EVENTS?

Planning a Corporate Christmas Party may not be the only event you organise. Of course, all of these ideas are not just suitable for a Christmas party. You might also find them useful for a product launch or brand activation; a valued client party; an end of financial year celebration; a team building activity; or just an occasional event to keep everyone motivated.

Inflatable Pub Hire Sydney – Medium size

Written by

Inflatable Pub Hire Sydney

Our Inflatable Pub Hire Sydney service will make your next event unique. Bring the local pub to your next event with this exciting new concept. Our pop up inflatable pub is great for large events, backyard parties for adults, and everything in between. This concept has been extremely popular in the UK in recent years because it defends against rain and provides an exciting atmosphere, as opposed to your standard marquee set up. It is great for brand activations.

The inflatable pub acts as an inflatable marquee with a theme. There is no floor in the inflatable, i.e. it is not like a jumping castle. Click here if you’re looking for an adult jumping castle hire.

Make your next event or backyard party special by hiring your very own pop up inflatable pub for your family, friends and colleagues to enjoy.

Also, please note: we do not provide any alcohol with the inflatable pub.

As you can see in the pictures, our logo is attached using Velcro. Which means you can attach your own branding to the pub.

School Fete Fundraising : Moving Away From Unfair Profit Share & Net Loss

Written by

School Fete Fundraising

School fete fund raising is a major activity of any school year. Fun and fund raising go well together for a school fete. With a variety of entertainment and with a good amount of income, your event will be a blast! However, holding a school fete isn’t all about just fun and sponsorship. It requires the school committee’s commitment, effort, time and wise planning.

School Fete Fundraising Budget: Managing the Budget to Avoid Net Loss

One of the worst things that will probably let down your school fete fundraising is a net loss. This is the result when expenses will be greater than the event’s income at the end of the celebration. In other words, planning for a successful school fete shouldn’t include hasty planning. Doing so will just put the school’s funds at risk.

Besides, you will need to select a good date and a venue, a school fete fundraising planning committee, a budget, and sponsors. You must also consider the task of successfully promoting the event. Most importantly, you will need an amusement operator/contractor.

Choosing an Amusement Operator for Your Event

A school fete is never complete without amusement rides. An amusement operator will provide this form of entertainment. Your choice of specific rides will mostly depend on the event’s target attendees.

  • Securing a Written Agreement with the Operator

Moreover, it’s not just all about focusing on amusement. The school’s planning committee should secure a written agreement with the commercial contractor. An agreement ensures the quality of the services to be provided, the safety and insurance, and the clear financial arrangement.

  • Weighing a Good Offer and a Bad Offer

Selecting an amusement operator is the most critical decision in holding a school fete event. Indeed, one of the common mistakes in holding a school fete is in the selection of an operator based on price alone. Always put in mind that the price is only as good as the quality of the services.

You must also be careful in choosing a contractor that might bait you with urgent offers. In fact, a good contractor will not pressure a customer to hurriedly avail their services. You need to make sure that the amount you’ll pay is justified by the quality of the services you’ll receive. By contracting with a reputable firm, you can reduce the risk of injuries and hassles that might occur during the event.

For more information check out our Blog called the Checklist for Hiring Amusement Devices.

School Fete Profit: Agreeing with a Fair Profit Share

You can book school fete fundraising amusement rides on either a Flat-Rate Hire or under an 80/20 Profit-Share Contract.

  • Flat-Rate Hire

When a school committee contracts a Flat-Rate Hire, the school pays a fixed fee for each amusement hired. Then, it retains all income from the sale of ride tickets and passes on the day. The committee handles all advertising and ticket sales, with their profit being Total Sales less Total Ride Hire.

With a Flat Rate, there is a potential for the school to earn funds as well. This profitability depends on the weather condition and the number of attendees. However, the school will pay the total fee regardless of whether the school will lose money or make a profit.

We find best practice for School Fete fundraising ticket sales is to offer a discounted wristband if they purchase it before the day. This locks in a vast majority before the day. Consequently, they will attend and it also provides the committee with cash flow prior to the day. Rain hail or shine those who have purchased wristbands before the day will turn up. On the day you would then sell the ride tickets at a premium to those who didn’t purchase beforehand.

  • 80/20 Profit-Share

This is an important consideration in school fete fundraising.

Alternatively, under an 80/20 Profit-Share arrangement, ride operators provide set up and supervise their attractions free of charge. At the completion of the event, the amusement operator pays the event organizer (school) 20% of total ride income. This will all come from the sale of tickets and/or ride passes.

On an 80/20 Commission, the hired operator gets 80% of the total income. This is a good option if the organizing committee wants to avoid the risk by leaving the financial obligation to the amusement provider. With this, the amusement operator accepts all risks as to weather, attendance, and income.

Which one is better? There are arguments either way but if you have a committed team you will generally find the flat rate hire is the better option.

Our Packages

Bubbling With Energy Entertainment can provide great school fete fundraising packages which can include fun and challenges for all ages. These include large jumping castles, inflatable obstacle courses, stunt jumps, mechanical bulls, water slides. and dry slides.  We also have dodgem cars, tea cup and saucer rides and many more amusements that will fit into your school fete requirements.

The committee might even consider one of our Ninja Warrior or Spartan packages, which will certainly attract the crowds. Remember the saying “if you build it they will come”. We can package an exciting package of amusements which will attract patrons of all ages.

Fairy Floss, Popcorn and Sno Cones is money making made simple

Don’t forget carnival food such as Fairy Floss, Popcorn and Sno Cones for your school fete fundraising event. Bubbling With Energy Entertainment can provide these machines. Your school can appoint volunteers to operate each machine. They give incredible profit margins per serve. Talk to one of our friendly staff for more details.

In conclusion, the decision on whether to choose a Flat-Rate Hire or an 80/20 Profit-Share will depend on two main things. These include the budget and the calculated risks that the planning committee will consider.

In a much brighter side, the school’s budget for the fundraising fete can come from sponsors. That’s a better way to kick-start the fun school fete fundraising activity.

What Mentally Friendly did

So, here’s one team building idea that’s a bit out of the ordinary.

There were no limits with “Project: Boss Abduction” for the Sydney based digital product studio, Mentally Friendly. 

Everyone coordinated an ambush of their unsuspecting boss mid-meeting. The employees ran into the meeting room on the boss’s birthday, put pillow cases and tape over his head and almost carried him to a private bus!

The entire company headed to a for-hire space at Sydney Olympic Park filled with inflatables. Then they finally removed the poor boss’s blindfolds. Everyone started playing on our slides! Some tried our jumping castles and mechanical surfboard. The team celebrated the whole afternoon with food and drinks. Some enjoyed watching their colleagues compete on the inflatables.

Furthermore, the Human Resources Manager at Mentally Friendly said it was a successful fun day for everyone.
