Giving Something Back

From an early age, all children are encouraged to think of others and to support people who are less fortunate than them. We have a pupil-lead charity committee which identifies charities to support and how the school can help them.

Charities we’ve supported

Pupils have helped SPEAR Homeless Charity and Richmond Food Bank with donations of food and toiletries.

At our annual Christmas carol service, a collection is raised to support families in desperate need around the world. We also respond to emergency appeals after a natural disaster.

Chitsime School, Malawi

We have strong links with Chitsime school in Malawi, through African Vision. Over the last five years our sponsored activities have raised money to build school classrooms, a water pump and a new kitchen. We have donated uniforms, book bags, sports bags and footballs to the school. In 2019, our first music marathon raised £5000 towards a new minibus for the charity. We reinforce our relationship with the Malawian school through regular Chitsime Assemblies for all pupils.
