It's the morning after the night before. The Year 6 party was a fantastic send off and enjoyed by the children, parents and school staff who popped in on the way to their night out. I hope they had a great night and have a well earned rest over the holidays.
We would just like to say a massive 'Thank You' to everyone who has been involved with FAPS this year. It's been a tough one, but we've pulled together and raised enough money for some wonderful treats and the much needed ICT equipment. A special thanks to Addingham Civic Society and Addingham Good Neighbours for their generous contributions showing us that we are a fantastic community here in the village. Also to Daniel Keating for braving the heat to raise funds doing the Ilkely half marathon. Amazing.
There are too many people to thank, but if you have been involved in any way. Our thanks are genuine and I hope you will join us again next year.
Rosie B and Team FAPS

🎉🥾💻 WE DID IT! 💻🥾🎉

After over 19 miles, countless steps, a lot of determination, plenty of snacks and a few aching muscles, the Trek for Tech team have officially made it to Leeds! 🙌

Today, Mrs Griffin, Miss Shoesmith, Mrs Callen, Mrs Cruse and Mrs Wright completed their challenge along the Leeds & Liverpool Canal, raising money to help provide new technology for the children of Addingham Primary School.

We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved, but even more grateful for the amazing support we have received from our families, friends, colleagues and wider community. Every donation, share, message of encouragement and cheer along the way helped keep us going when our legs wanted to stop!

This challenge was never really about the miles. It was about investing in our children’s future and helping provide the technology they need to learn, grow and succeed.

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported Trek for Tech. Your generosity will make a real difference to the children at our school.

If you’d still like to support our fundraising efforts, our JustGiving page remains open:

Now, if you’ll excuse us, we think we’ve earned a sit down! 😆🥾❤️

🥾💻 TREK FOR TECH UPDATE! 💻🥾

We’ve officially passed the 5.5-mile mark and the Trek for Tech team are still smiling… mostly! 😄

Mrs Griffin, Miss Shoesmith, Mrs Callen, Mrs Cruse and Mrs Wright set off this morning from Silsden and are making great progress on their journey to Leeds, all in aid of raising funds for new technology for the children at Addingham Primary School.

We’ve enjoyed some beautiful canal-side scenery, plenty of laughs and lots of encouragement along the way. The feet are holding up, the snacks are disappearing fast, and the determination to reach Leeds is stronger than ever!

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us so far through donations, messages and shares. Your kindness is keeping us going when the legs start to complain!

If you’d like to support our challenge and help us provide new Chromebooks and ICT equipment for our pupils, you can donate here:
