As seen recently in the news, school budgets are now under a huge strain, making it difficult to buy the physical resources needed for your children. We rely on a range of fundraising activities to raise additional funds for the school that can be spent on these resources and help supplement our decreasing budget.
So far this year we have raised an incredible £9400! Thank you everyone for your support!
There are a number of ways you can help us raise money:
Telford Top-up is a scheme that invites parents, carers, grandparents and anyone else in our school community to provide a regular contribution to the school. Payments can be made through one-off donations or through regular giving – and for every pound you give we get an extra 25% with Gift Aid.
- The scheme will guarantee a regular income, allowing the school to continue providing a rich and varied curriculum for our children.
- By signing up to Gift Aid, we can claim an extra 25p for every £1 you donate – making the Tax Man work a little harder!
- It provides an alternative opportunity for parents and carers to contribute to the school, even if a lack of time prevents involvement in other fundraising activities.
