Westbury Leigh Fundraising for Westbury Leigh
Each year we identify a fund raising project to improve our school further. The money we get as a school doesn’t go very far and it is often a stretch to afford the basics of staffing and resources for teaching and learning. By fundraising we are able to create a stimulating and inspiring environment in which the school can flourish further as part of living out our vision.
Fundraising for 2023
Fund Raising Project for April 2021-March 22
This year we want to improve how children can access outdoor learning and develop their eco awareness. We are very lucky to have a farm and forest school on site and we want to develop our school grounds further to enrich this by:

Making a donation

All donations are appreciated and go a long way in making WLPS a great place for our children to be.
Alongside this, we will be running volunteer days and projects to make use of local expertise and donations.

In 2019-20 we raised money for developing the farm and alongside a generous donation from FoWLS were able to extend the pens and lay a hard core area to stop the animals getting bogged down in the mud when it rained and to make it easier to clean.
