Fundraising

All at CFS would like to express a huge thank you to parents for all of your support with our fundraising events. In the academic year 22-23, we made a staggering £14,007 and, as you can see from the pictures, have used this money to enhance the learning experience for all our pupils in both Primary and Secondary.

A number of areas across the school have benefited from additional funds, but specifically, your generous support has enabled us to: develop and engage the pupils in understanding British Values across the school and the important role it plays at CFS – through our amazing wall wraps; celebrate the achievements of our pupils through the wall displays in the entrance to the Carmelite Hall; support pupils in primary with some additional sensory supplies; support GCSE pupils with the purchase of maths revisions guides; enhance the music department further with the purchase of percussion instruments; improve the comfort of staff and visitors with the purchase of cushioned chairs for the hall; improve the scooter and primary outdoor equipment storage on the school site – making it much easier for the primary pupils to access equipment during break times.

We raise much needed additional funds through a number of school events over the year including: Bags2School; Primary Christmas cards; quiz nights; gifting events; second hand uniform sales; performances and concerts; cake sales; discos and movie nights and of course our biggest fundraisers each year are the Christmas and Summer Fairs.  Without your donations, attendance, help and support, these events would simply not be possible.  So one big THANK YOU from us all at CFS.
