Dovedale Primary School Playground Project
Education & Skills
We would like to enhance our school grounds and develop its potential as an outdoor classroom.
About this cause
The Dovedale Association was set up over 26 years ago as a community association linking teachers, children, parents and those in the surrounding area to the school. We arrange activities and events for parents and children of the school. Profits support the educational aims of the school. Funds raised are used for the school to purchase new equipment and items that might otherwise be unaffordable. We have continued to support the staff and children across the school in their learning and play throughout the years by providing the necessary funds when requested. We have paid for new equipment for the children to enjoy playing with at lunchtimes. The more we raise, the more the children gain. “Aiming High Together!”
How this cause brings people in the community together
Dovedale Primary School presently has 384 pupils who come from the surrounding area. The school opens its grounds to welcome many community initiatives eg Rainbows and Beaver groups as well as hosting before and after school clubs. Events such as the annual Summer Fair are open to the local community allowing all to enjoy the benefits of the outdoor enhancements.
