About Us Fundraising/Charity

We hold many fundraising events during the school year. Parents and families are very supportive of these and the children love raising money for many different worthwhile causes. Some of our more recent highlights are:

2020 Children in Need

We raised £1172 on Children in Need Day. The children dressed up and brought a donation and bought virtual raffle tickets. They loved the online raffle assembly and had a great day.

2020 Poppy Appeal

We raised £546.07 for this vital cause.
