What we've funded
This is a summary of how we've supported the school over last couple of years. We're really proud of what we've been able to deliver for our school! You can find out more on our News pages.
None of this would be possible without the ongoing support of the school community - your attendance at our events, the bakes you make and buy, your support through volunteering - all of this makes the below possible, so THANK YOU!
If you have any thoughts or feedback on what we've funded or what we're working towards, please get in touch - we'd love to hear your views.
It's early days for 2024/25, but so far we've already supported:
