Our main activity is to raise funds for the school to use for the benefit of the staff and pupils. We do this via our three main activities: the fireworks in November, quiz night in March and by supporting shows in which pupils show off their music and/or acting skills. The fireworks event is a large community event with numerous families not linked to the school attending. The quiz is more school based and the shows arranged by the drama department or the school band club are attended by pupils and parents of pupils.
