We are proud of our links with local businesses and recognise the range of support and expertise these partnerships offer us.
A group of ‘Reading Buddies’ read with children every week. We have a group of reading buddies from Revenue and Customs, Deloitte and Burges Salmon - some of them have been reading with children for fiftteen years!
We were delighted that TouchWoodplay.co.uk recently developed a beautiful learning and play space in our outside space, thanks to some fantastic individual donations.We have links with construction companies working in our local area.
First Base, who are developing part of the Gardiner Haskins site opposite school, organsied and funded a beautful Hannah More mural, painted by local artist Zoe Power, which is in the West corridor. They also supported us with food box donations.
We have links with Burges Salmon who regularly provide teams of volunteers to help with particular tasks and run festive craft afternoons. They have lent us training rooms, enabling our 'Bridging Gaps' cultural competence trainers to run exciting events. We have been grateful for all the Bonfire night volunteers and lunchtime gardening volunteers as well.
In the last two years, we have done several projects with We the Curious, some of which will have been funded by the corporate sector.
