Fundraising
Welcome to our Fundraising Page!
Here you can find out all about how we raise money for our fabulous school, information regarding current fundraising events, and how we spend the money.

We’re incredibly grateful for our ongoing partnership with The Strawberry Bank in Meriden, who have proudly supported us as their chosen charity since 2022. Over the years, their generosity has shone through in so many ways — from donating raffle prizes and prosecco for our summer fairs, to hosting quiz nights and contributing all proceeds to our cause. They’ve also played a key role in the success of our Spring Balls, held at The Strawberry Bank in March 2023, 2024, and 2025. We’re already excited as preparations begin for our fourth Spring Ball in March 2026!

Working Together to Support Our School
The school fundraising team plays a vital role in enriching school life and supporting our children. Led by the school, the team is made up primarily of parents, alongside dedicated members of staff, all working closely together with a shared goal. Through their enthusiasm and commitment, they organise a wide range of wonderful events that the children love to be involved in, including discos, “break the rules” days, and special gift sales for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Christmas. A particular highlight is the much-loved Christmas pop-up shop, Elfridges, which always brings excitement and festive cheer. We are incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated group of parents and staff supporting these events—quite simply, we couldn’t do it without them.
How much have we previously raised?
Where's the money going?
During 2025–2026, we plan to enhance our outdoor learning area. We aim to purchase a covered space that will allow children to continue learning even in the most inclement weather!
During 2024 - 2025 we raised enough money to update and improve on our gymnastic and PE equipment. These improvements will help us provide safer, more engaging, and inclusive physical activities for all children, supporting their fitness, confidence, and enjoyment of sport.
During 2023 - 2024 we were able to replace the sound system in the school hall. The new microphones and speakers have transformed the space, ensuring that children’s assemblies, performances, and school events sound better than ever. This upgrade has made a real difference to how pupils share their voices and celebrate their achievements with confidence.
During 2022-2023 our fundraising efforts were very much welcomed as we finally managed to replace the school set of iPads. Both the staff and children were delighted as this was long overdue!
During 2021-2022 we updated our outside area, starting with the Early Years area, we purchased some new equipment such as sand and water trays, a climbing frame etc. There have been three large storage sheds purchased too, to keep all the Early Years outdoor equipment in.
For the rest of school, we improved and extend the current trim-trail and made the ground under and around it safer with a rubberised material.
We also purchased a commemorative Platinum Jubilee badge for every child.
