4) What does this website tell you from looking at its URL []

At the start Andrew, sean and I were thinking about topics to Research about. We had a few ideas such as Transport or computer games. After Overhearing what another group was planning we thought we could try and all work together to actually host a disco in the school for year 8 and 9s. so now we have two groups working one doing the planning and one doing the Actually Disco day. Our Group has 2 Responsibilities one group is me Kaine and Andrew we are responsible for doing the planning and management of this event. The other group is with Que, David and Mag are doing the DJ part of it.
 * Planning a Year 8 and 9 disco**..

For Our Research topic we chose to host an event for years 8 and 9 for an underage party. The first steps are to approve this idea to Miss Edwards and the P.E teachers to book out the Gym for the 7th of November to host this event. Once that’s approved we can begin our research and planning
 * //How to promote and plan a year 8 and 9 school disco.//**

My question is “how to market, plan and host an event”? My first question I need to ask is where would the most suitible place for the venue be?(what is needed to ensure this) The second question is how will I use my research to make this event suitible for year 8 and 9s?

We decided to work together on each question and plan everything as a group to ensure success of this event. Our project outcome will be for all group members to work together to plan and put on an event. Which will be a year 8 and 9 disco. We will also attempt to get sponsorships from business to help with giving out prizes on the day.

The disco will be held in the gym during lunchtime and we will also survey the year 8s and 9s to find out what music they like so that the DJs can plan popular music. We have also invited a year 12 student Nicholas Kobongo to perform an R & B on the day. We will produce flyers and advertise the event and organize the DJs equipment and lights in collaboration with the needs of the DJs.

We hope our event is a big success.

__06/09/2011__ Today in our lesson double, we have talked to a few teachers to find out the dates of the year 12 exams. They will begin in week 4 term 4 on october the 31st. We havent decided what we have a list of options that we could use that Mr Frangos helped create.

Original Plan: __08/09/2011__ Today Sean and I walked and looked at the possible venues avalible at school. We looked at the new performing arts centre and the outside area near the canteen. We still have our minds set on hosting the event in the school gym, but the gym is under maintenance at the moment so it is hard for us to check what is available. We also typed up our sponsorship request
 * 1) Hold a year 8/9 disco in the gym or performing arts area
 * 2) second option: Hold outdoor music event in methke area lunchtime 7/11
 * 3) issue: need to find out about yr 12 exam timetsble lunchtime 7th november or outdoor music event in another arrea of school not disturbing the year 12 exams if there on at that time or have the event in week 2 before year 12's leave.

Dear manager, We are a group of students in year 11 at Woodville high school studying a subject called “Year 11 Research Project”. Our topic of research is about event management and putting on an event. Our event is to hold an outdoor music festival at our school during a lunchtime in early November and as part of this we are looking for sponsors to give out prizes for our year 8 and 9 students. We are wondering if you could support us and sponsor us with any products from your store to give away as prizes. Your business name will be acknowledged at the event and on any brochures or flyers we produce. We would greatly appreciate your support and our students will also enjoy your products. If you have any enquiries about this event, you can contact our teacher, Mr Evan Frangos at Woodville High School on

Thanking you in anticipation Andrew Williamson, Sean Rowsell and Kaine Puckey

Woodville High School 11 Actil Ave Woodville 13/9/11 Tuesday Andrew, Sean and I went to Centro Arndale to acquire sponsorships for our concert. We visited many places including EB games, Dick Smiths and Sanity. Most of them would not sponsor us because they were already spnsoring something else or just wouldn't sponsor us for no reason said. We didn't get any definite sponsors because we believed that they didn't trust us because we're teenagers. We found that it was a good experience but would probably not want to do it again. __Helpful Links__
