Fund Raising
The Friends try to organise at least one major event per school term with smaller events scattered throughout the year. These have the dual benefit of raising money and bringing the school communitee closer together.
Details of forthcoming events can be found on the Events page. We always require help and support for these events and greatly appreciate all those who contribute their time and effort. If you would like to contribute but are unable to because of work or family constraints you could help by becoming a member of the 100 Club.
Alternatively you could contact the Friends directly and arrange for a donation (see Charity Status for details).
