Every year, money raised is used to fund equipment, resources and experiences for the students and to subsidise school trips allowing a minimum cost to be charged to parents. Over the years the School Association has…
• part funded school trips to reduce the costs for parents.
• paid for specialists to come into school to provide the students with experiences to bring subjects to life.
• bought resources for the school such as library books, keyboards for the music room, cameras for drama and outdoor equipment for the playground.
• helped to keep the swimming pool open by paying for various elements of its upkeep.
• paid for end of term celebratory treats like crackers at Christmas, pizzas for the year 8 leavers party and breakfast and pizzas for year 6 during SATs.
• organised events for the students such as discos, ice lolly Fridays, Summer and Christmas fairs. We need all hands on deck to bake cakes, serve teas and coffees, sell lollies, be creative with the kids, man stalls, man BBQs, sell raffle tickets, etc...
You do not have to attend meetings and you do not have to help at every event. So if you think you can offer your help no matter how big or small (whether that’s baking a cake or manning the door at a disco) please, please, please let us know by contacting us on [email protected] or via this page. Please support our events and fundraisers in any way you can. We really do need everyone’s support to fundraise successfully.
