“No One is Too Small to Make a Difference” Greta Thunberg
Through our charity work our aim is to develop a caring community within the school by encouraging commitment, courtesy, co-operation, tolerance and compassion towards one another whilst understanding that each individual is a member of a wider community.
Our Charities
Each year children bring forward their ideas and suggestions for which charity the school should support. The School Council votes and then all fundraising efforts are directed towards the nominated Charity.
Year Group Challenges
As well as our whole school charity, each year group in the school from Year 3 upwards, is also challenged to raise awareness and money for a charity of their choice. Each half term, a different year group researches a charity that they are interested in, they then have to plan and organise an event, promote it and explain the charity to the whole school in assembly.
Charity Day
Our charity work culminates in our annual Charity Day with the whole school getting involved. Regularly raising over £3,000, it is a day of fun and action including: social and environmental learning, fancy dress, car washing, stalls run by the pupils, volleyball matches and not to mention the staff sumo competition. All this concludes in two fabulous concerts featuring bands, dancers, choirs and orchestras from throughout the school.
