Working together to build our school community: an opportunity to support our families so that all pupils can enjoy life enhancing experiences.
Activities days are an excellent way for our pupils to develop Exceptional Character, and these exciting, sometimes life changing activities are a very important part of our school curriculum.
Each year we are approached by some parents who wish to make a voluntary contribution to help the children from low income families have the opportunity to participate in a range of activities. This year we wanted to formalise this process – making it easier to make a voluntary contribution to help more activities become accessible to every pupil. If you would like to make a donation to support our school community in this way, this can be done by visiting our online school shop.
If you would like to help in this way, please visit our school shop Parent Pay School Shop Activities Week donations where you can see the full list of activities and costs ranging from £1 to £350. Once you have selected your activity, you will be able to make payment by card. When filling in the details, please put ‘donation’ in the ‘child’s name’ box. All donations will be acknowledged, but will remain anonymous.
We are proud to be part of a school community where we recognise that everyone makes an essential contribution to the life of the school. We want to thank all our parents for the support you give us each day as we work together to provide your children with their best possible learning experiences. From positive words of encouragement to our pupils and staff, through to financial contributions, we really value each family for the time, energy and commitment you put into working together with us to build our school community as well as your children’s individual successes.
