Fundraising Friday

In 2015 we introduced Fundraising Friday (FRF), a day every 3 years during which the school raises significant amounts of money for charity. Students opt to take part in a range of activities from a sponsored walk through to the day spent gaming. Other students chose a day of ‘extreme science’ or a morning football competition.

Families are asked, where possible to support Fundraising Friday through sponsorship, or donation.

Proceeds from Fundraising Friday are donated to various charities including:

British Heart Foundation – we lost our colleague, Alan Hammond, in July 2023, he was working at school when this happened.  Alan had worked with us for over twenty years on the Site Staff and we want to raise funds for a charity that helps people living with life-threatening heart conditions.

Rowan’s Hospice Meerkat service – many children in our community have experienced loss of a parent/ grandparent and have accessed their Meerkat service for child bereavement support. As such, we want to provide them with funding so that they can continue to run this vital service.
