Ideas needed for cash handling/distribution question on application!

I'm applying for a local part time role that sounds perfect and matches my experiences etc.
It's an admin role but will involve a bit of cash handling and distribution in the organisation.
I'm a bit stumped on this question as I've not done a huge amount of cash handing before.
In my current admin role I do things like petty cash, ordering stationary, stamps etc. How can I "dress up" my cash experience to sound a bit more substantial?
This is the only question I'm struggling with so don't want to leave it blank or have it stop me sending the application.

Definitely don’t leave it blank. You can say that your experience has meant that you work accurately (record keeping etc) and quickly to ensure the petty cash is manage appropriately and that items are ordered in a timely way.

Is there anything from other areas of your life you could use to show similar skills - banking the takings from the PTA school fair or similar?And what are they trying to find out - whether you have the techical skills of counting, banking, updating the system, or whether you can be trusted with money?
