We held both an Autumn Fair and a Summer Fair which raised significant funds.
In the summer term weekly lolly sales remained popular Other events throughout the year included, raffles, Jubilee celebrations, a quiz night and Krispy Kreme sale. Funds raised from the above events were spent on many things to benefit the children of the school, including: Christmas celebrations, Easter celebrations; Leavers celebrations; Subsidising school trips; Diwali workshops; A first aid course; Book bags; and Work towards a school library. The successful receipt of a large grant from the National Grid meant we were able to fund a fantastic outdoor classroom which has seen a lot of use. Successful Tesco blue token applications the year before meant we could fund new gym equipment and a gardening project this year.
