Friends of Five Acre Wood and Grow19
Report on the accounts for the year ending 31[st] August 2024
The Friends of Five Acre Wood and Grow 19 advance the learning and opportunities for the students at Five Acre Wood and Grow 19.
They do this by:
-
Developing effective relationships between the staff, parents , carers and others associated with both institutions
-
Engaging in fundraising activities, including grant applications and event organisation that will provide additional, non-statutorily funded resources and income for the students at Five Acre Wood and Grow 19
Five Acre Wood School is a foundation special school for children and young people with profound, severe and complex needs aged from 5-19 with the main site in Maidstone and satellite provisions at Palace Wood Primary School and a self-contained provision at Holmesdale School, Snodland Kent and Oxford Road, Kent. There are over 860 students at the school. Grow 19 is an SPI College for young adults with learning difficulties aged from 19 -25.
Activities over the year
– ’ An evening with Gregg Wallace Hosted by Channel 4 s Hunted, Marc Cananur
In July we held an external event, at a local pub who provided the venue free of charge to support our fundraising efforts. The evening was hosted in the pub garden with over 80 attendees. Both Gregg and Marc are huge supporters of the school and provided an evening of fantastic entertainment this included a cake competition and a Q&A. This brilliant event raised £1234.51 which was put towards phase 1 of our specialist soft play facility for our pupils.
At the end of the academic year (July 2024) we made a final decision on a contractor. We were delighted SEC Works (a local bus conversion company with ample of experience) happily accepted this project.
A trustee and I have been to see the bus and are delighted to see our vision come to life. Whilst our bus is in the workshop it will undergo phase 1 of the project which will include a full strip out of the chairs, electrical work, and the transformation of the ground floor.
FAWrient Express
Over the past year we have turned a former Polar Express first-class buffet train carriage into a pioneering ‘hospitality training academy’, in partnership with Costa Coffee!
This project was brought to fruition by local businesses and donations such as a lift, air con units, paint, coffee machines and so much more.
On the 2[nd] of October, our grand opening took place where we invited all our stakeholders to join us in this milestone. This was also opportunity for our students to put into practice the barista training they had recently been given. We are very much looking forward to the FAWrient Express being open to our staff, parents, and the wider community in early November 2024.
The Willows Project
The Willows will be a large workshop based within our Outdoor Learning Environment (OLE). The workshop will have the equipment needed to carry out Horticultural and landscaping skills and tasks. This outstanding project will promote independence for our young people and give them the opportunity to engage in meaningful work experience so that they can lead a fulfilling and happy life.
We are pleased to share we have secured funding from two local businesses who will support the structural build of The Willows. Both our staff and pupils will help with this, and it will form part of the student’s curriculum. The build will be created during our school day with the support of our staff, and students helping throughout.
We were also successful in a grant application where we received £5,000 which will enable us to purchase the equipment required. Our team have already started preparing the ground and we hope The Willows will be officially open in March 2025.
