About this cause

The Friends exists to raise money which is invested in the school to enrich the children's education and play. We raise about £22,000 per annum which is vital at a time when school budgets are under so much pressure Recent projects have funded the library, science laboratory, playground equipment, musical instruments, classroom technology and iPads. We also support workshops throughout the year, such seminars on Internet safety. We do this by running a programme of events throughout the year which give parents, children and teachers a chance to come together as a community and have fun for a good cause. Our regular events include the Christmas & Summer Fairs, Quiz and Comedy Nights, Halloween Children's Disco and Easter Eggstravaganza.

How this cause brings people in the community together

By putting back into our school, we help to make our children better members of society. The focus on social giving and support starts at an early age and helps to forge links right across the community. This is borne out by the amazing support that we receive from parents, teachers and pupils when organising our fund raising events.
