We would just like to take this opportunity to offer our heartfelt thanks for your kind and generous donations towards our foodbank appeal. You have all made such a difference to the lives of so many of our families, and others within the wider community, and have proven once again that during difficult times we pull together as a school family and have been able to show the true meaning of Christmas.

We wish you all a peaceful and happy Christmas.

Excellent Charity Work

6th December 2020 By adammcphail

A member of our school community has taken part in brilliant acts of charity! Archie in Class 5 sent out an appeal for donations to the East Durham Trust, an organisation which helps to feed families in the East Durham area. Archie collected over 70 selection boxes, which will be given to children this Christmas, along with other donated items and gave them to the East Durham Trust this week. His hard work was very much appreciated, and our whole school community are very proud of his charitable work. Great work Archie!
If you would like to find out more about the East Durham Trust, including how to make a donation or to see what services they offer, please visit https://www.eastdurhamtrust.org.uk/
