Battyeford Buddies Bungalow Conversion
Young People
We want to create a dedicated space for the school's after school/holiday club and for local youth/activity groups.
About this cause
Friends of Battyeford is registered charity and registered Parent Teacher Association whose aim is to support the success and development of Battyeford Primary School, its students and their families, and its impact on the local community. We plan and run a number of social events for the students and their families/the local community (movie nights, fairs, discos, book fairs etc etc) , and we raise funds which are used to support the school and the children's enjoyment of it, funding items such as playground redevelopment, playground toys and equipment, library books, student enterprise initiatives, gardening equipment and plants, etc etc.
How this cause brings people in the community together
The before/after school club has been a huge success, providing low-cost, flexible out of school care to local families and also helping to support our pupils and reduce absenteeism/improve learning. A dedicated centre will allow us to expand our services, including holiday clubs for local children, and provide a space that can also be used by local youth/community groups and activity clubs.
