Tesco Computer Vouchers
 The 2008 Promotion
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Since 1992 Tesco has delivered more than £118 million worth of computer equipment to schools. We would like to claim equipment for CVC again this year and are asking you to collect the special Tesco Computers for Schools vouchers at the checkout every time you shop or buy petrol at Tesco.
Tesco Vouchers In 2007, with your support, the College managed to collect 41,595 vouchers including 220 vouchers from recycling used printer cartridges and old mobile phones. We were able to 'purchase' four digital imaging projectors which are now being used by pupils in the Science Laboratories. In 2006 we were able to 'purchase' two notebook computers, which are being used by pupils in the Centre.
We would like to do better than last year and increase the number of vouchers collected. CVC starts with 4,395 vouchers which were 'banked' in 2007 and we have set an overall target of 43,500 for 2008. As always, we depend on your help and generosity.
This year, the Tesco Computers for Schools scheme started on Monday 3 March and runs until Sunday 11 May. Customers receive one voucher for every £10 spent in a single transaction in any Tesco store or petrol filling station during this period.
Please give any vouchers you collect to your child to bring into school to add to our collection. At the end of the promotion, hopefully, we will have collected enough vouchers to exchange for new items of computer-based equipment.
There are collecting boxes in School Reception, outside the School Office and in the Reception area of CB3. We are collecting the vouchers until the end of June. Any vouchers received after this date will be banked for 2009.
Please ask your friends and relatives - in fact anyone you know - to collect vouchers for us!
We can collect even more Computers for Schools vouchers if you recycle your used inkjet cartridges and old mobile phones (see below).
Thank you in anticipation.

One Computers for Schools voucher is given for every £10 spent in Tesco stores and petrol filling stations in a single transaction (excluding purchases from Concessions, Tobacco Kiosk, prescription medicines, infant formulae or the sale of National Lottery tickets and scratch cards).
One Computers for Schools voucher is given for every £5 spent in Tesco Express stores (subject to the above exclusions).
For every working phone donated, CVC will be given 30 Computers for Schools vouchers, and 5 for a non-working phone.
For all information about mobile phone recycling, please visit the mobile phone recycling website. All mobile phones can be either reused or recycled - no matter the age, make, model or working condition. Customers then donate their vouchers to CVC and we exchange the vouchers for computer equipment.
For every empty inkjet cartridge you send in that can be recycled, CVC will be given 10 Computers for Schools vouchers. Download the full list of inkjet and toner cartridges (.pdf) that can be recycled through the scheme. Please be warned that Tescos do not accept Epson cartridges.
