Friends of Whissendine Primary School –
Putting the fun in fundraising!
The Friends of Whissendine Primary School is here to help make our school even more fabulous. When joining the school, all parents automatically become a member of the Friends Association and, we hope, will be able to join us in fundraising for our amazing school.
Our aim is to raise funds each year to provide the school with more opportunities to enhance the school experience for our children as well as supporting the school, where necessary, to purchase essentials items.
We aim to create opportunities for all our parents and carers to get involved - through donating time and volunteering, attending one of our fun events or simply a route to suggesting new ways in which you think we could help make a difference.

How we have already helped:
The school has an amazing Trim Trail that was supported with funds raised by the Friends.
Laptop Storage - there is no point in having the necessary technology available for the children to use if it is damaged, broken or uncharged. Buying the school a new laptop storage trolley means that all of the equipment is safe and always ready for use.
Hoodies - The children in Y6 leave us with memories of their time at Whissendine and, should they forget, they can snuggle in their hoodie, funded by the Friends, that shows that names of all of their classmates.
Pantomime - The children, for the past few years, have been visited by a touring pantomime company in the weeks leading up to Christmas. It is noisy, silly and great fun.
