  Charity/Fundraising/Non-uniform events

  2019-20

  Each year, in an effort to give parents advance warning and enable parents to plan for our yearly events we put together a list of our pre-planned events and outlined our fundraising causes.

  In some circumstances, such as an international relief effort for a disaster, we may add in additional fundraising days, however we will endeavour to keep changes to a minimum.

  Our current planned events/fundraising days are:

  Event	Date	Voluntary donation/items needed	Beneficiary
  Harvest collection	Friday 4th October 2019	Small item of non-perishable food	Tameside Foodbank
  Poppy sales	November 2019	Poppies on sale in school	The Royal British Legion
  Joint non-uniform day for Chocolate Tombola & Children in Need	Either Friday 22nd or Friday 29th November 2019 TBC	1 item of chocolate and/or £1 donation	PTA/Infant and Junior schools Children in Need
  Christmas Jumper Day	Friday 13th December 2019	£1 donation	Save the Children
  World Book Day	Thursday 7th March 2019	Costume of book character	N/A
  Easter Beanie sales	April 2020	£1.50 Available to buy in school	Willow wood Hospice, Tameside
  Decorate an egg – Easter competition	Thursday 2nd April 2020	A decorated egg	N/A
  Non-uniform day for Chocolate Tombola	Either Friday 19th or Friday 26th June 2020 TBC	1 item of chocolate	PTA/Infant and Junior schools
  Infant School Sponsored Sports Day	Thursday 9th July 2020	Voluntary sponsorship	Infant School funds

   

  Occasionally parents ask us to support additional causes throughout the year which may be close to their own hearts. Unfortunately we are not always able to agree to such requests as we already have a full programme of fundraising and charity support across the year.

  In the last couple of year’s school budgets have been dramatically reduced, this has led to us needing to increase our fundraising efforts for school funds and we very much appreciate parent’s support with this.

  The PTA also run several events throughout the year in order to raise funds for larger projects across the Infant and Junior schools.

  Please note that all contributions to and participation in the above events is completely voluntary.
