Fundraising

Throughout the year there are a wide range of events that raise significant funds for the school; from sponsored events like the Windsor Half Marathon, lots of Christmas activities, bake sales run by parents of each year group, to full school involvement with the summer fair.

Our Target

Can you help us raise £15,000 for our school this year? That's what we aiming for and it will need all your support in achieving, so how can you help?

 

How Can You Help and Get Involved

Every parent is welcome to get involved as they choose.

From attending our termly meetings (shared on our Facebook page and newsletters), which are very relaxed and always with prosecco, beer and nibbles(!!) or our social events- both great ways to meet other parents, have fun and support the school.

 

We are always looking for new volunteers, whether you have a great idea and would like to run an event or you wold like to help now and again, just let us know. Any time given is hugely appreciated as everything makes a difference. Whether it is baking a cake for a cake sale, giving an hour of your time to man a stall at an event, being part of the organising team for an event, or coming up with a new idea for ways we can raise money.

Please contact any of the Committee Members or your own Class Rep if you have any ideas or would like to get more involved in any of the Friends activities. You can also email the Committee at friendsclewergreen@gmail.com.
