Thank you for your support.
Mr Edwards
Offley Endowed Primary are always looking at ways to provide more exciting curriculum and extra curricular things for the children to do. With shrinking Government support and budgets, we rely more and more on the generosity of our parents and the local community to help with projects around the school. The Offley School Association do an amazing job of helping to raise funds and we have recently used fundraising money to purchase a new lighting system in the hall, over £2000 of new reading books for our younger readers and new dictionaries and thesaurusus for our older children.
There are always new projects on the horizon and the OSA have expressed an interest to help fund some additional staging and lighting in the summer of 2022. Any help in any fundraising matters is always greatly appreciated.
We have now raised enough money to buy our very own minibus. The OSA (Offley School Association) have raised £4,000 to donate to the school with the school contributing the rest, using some of our Sports Premium money. We have to also pay for the tax, insurance, sign writing and for teachers to pass the Herts Minibus test, before we are safe to take the children out. The Crowdfunding appeal organised by Offley School Association (especially Corey) has been a fantastic success raising over £1000 in just over two weeks.
Many thanks for everybody in helping the school fund this project and for some very generous individual donations. The ‘Burns supper’ in the village hall was a great community event and we were very grateful for their kind donation towards the minibus appeal. We have also received donations from local grants, parents, the School Disco and some MUFTI days.
If you would like to help out with any fundraising events; please talk to the OSA or me.
Many many thanks for your continued support.
Mr Edwards
