Friends are looking for a parent or two with some experience in applying for grants and funding. Is this something you have done before for another organisation or at work? If you are able to help please let us know. We are looking to extend our fundraising capabilities to support our school with future projects and could do with your help.

WANTED! Parents & Carers

At the end of the school year, we will be saying a sad goodbye and a HUGE thank you to a substantial number of Year 6 parents who have played a significant part in FoF fundraising activities over the last few years. This will leave a huge gap, but also bring great opportunities for others to get involved. There are many ways to get involved that can fit with your own commitments so please consider getting in touch to find out more. Without you Friends of Fishergate can’t operate.

Employer Raffle Prizes

Do you work for an employer that likes to donate to the local community? We are looking for raffle prizes towards the Summer Fair in July. Please consider asking at work – we will be happy to give them a big shout out on SM and at the Fair itself for their generosity. Contact Ali & Friends directly using friendsoffishergateschool@gmail.comFriends of Fishergate

The weather stayed dry last Saturday for the playground sale and Friends were able to raise an amazing £180 for the school. Thank you to everyone who came down to support us and to the families that booked tables. The Hot sausage and cheese rolls were an instant hit!

Summer Fair 6th July

Please save this date for your diaries! This is the highlight of the Friends fundraising and a lovely summer social event! Friends will be asking for tombola and raffle prizes donations so more details will be sent out soon. Also please remember to collect your jam-jars – for one of our most popular stalls!Friends of Fishergate
