Their fundraising efforts have enabled the school to procure equipment and teaching accessories to almost all faculties; e.g. Art – camera and projector; DT – laser cutting material, VEX kits; Biology, Physics, Chemistry – lab equipment e.g. faraday’s law apparatus, magnetic field sensor, oscilloscopes, infrared camera; History/Geography/Economics – books and subscriptions; Maths – laptops; Languages – dictionaries ; PE – table tennis table, rowing machines and so much more.
| Please support our PA and get involved! |

As they seek new and innovative ways to keep the community together and support one another and the school, to further the education of our students, the PA warmly invites parents/cares to come along to their committee meetings and to get involved.
If you are in a position to help out occasionally (one or two times a year) with refreshments at School functions, or on Saturday morning for Rugby Refreshments, please do contact them.
You can help as little or as much as you wish - all support is warmly welcomed.
Our PA is currently raising funds benefiting all pupils throughout the School.
