Expressions End of Year Newsletter
Thank You for an Amazing Year of Fundraising!

From all of us at Expressions – The Tea Towel Company, thank you for helping make 2022 a record-breaking year of tea towel fundraising across Australia. We were thrilled to welcome back many of our beloved long-time schools and centres after the disrupted COVID years. It’s been a joy to reconnect and see the creativity and community spirit come to life through our printed tea towel fundraisers.
Christmas Tea Towel Designs to Inspire
To wrap up the year on a festive note, check out these stunning personalised tea towels created by the talented Bethanie Proven and Ann-Maree Johnson. Their Christmas-themed artwork was a hit, proving once again how art can bring people together and make lasting memories. Perfect for end-of-year gifts and fundraising ideas for students!

Favourite Designs of the Year
We’ve had thousands of brilliant submissions, and while it’s impossible to pick just one, here are some of our team’s favourites from this year’s fundraising campaigns. Each one is a testament to the talent and creativity found in schools and childcare centres right across the country.




Survey Winners and Promotions

Big congratulations to Tash from Cooks Hills Preschool, winner of our Term 4 Survey Prize! Tash received a festive Christmas Rock and Tea Towel Pack. Don’t forget, completing your end-of-job survey gives you the chance to win in Term 1 too—so keep an eye out!
Plan Ahead for 2023

We know it sounds early, but planning for next year’s tea towel fundraiser is already underway! Especially for Mother’s Day, as the April school holidays and Easter make the cut-off dates a little earlier. Starting early ensures your beautifully printed tea towel Australia-wide orders are delivered in time for that special post to Grandma or interstate relatives.
