MARCH 2019

How is money raised? We raise money through events. We often hold one main event each school term. Other events include school uniform sales, discos and many more. We are always looking for new fundraising ideas.

How is money spent? Funds raised are intended to provide ‘extras’ not already provided by the school's main income – often 'fun things' that make learning more interesting and exciting. The Friends of ECPS committee decides how to spend funds. Common items include a contribution to the Pantomime Bus, Year 6 Hoodies and presents for Father Christmas to distribute.
