Our aim is to listen to your ideas, suggestions and feedback to support improvement of our school community. Last year we worked as a team to raise money to donate a large sum of money to help purchase new technology for the students. We have already booked many fun activities to support a 2025 donation, and will let you know our fundraising goals later in the term.
