Fundraising
Spring 2025
Comic Relief Toy Sale: We would like to say a huge thank you for all of your contributions to our Toy Sale, which ensured that our Toy Sale on Friday 21st March was a great success! The children all enjoyed purchasing a preloved toy or book today and we hope that we have given the toys a new lease of life, as well as raising money for Comic Relief.
Fundraising: Thank you for all your support today for the Dogs’ Trust – we have been inundated with food and treats for dogs in need. We also managed to raise £167.06 for the Myton Hospices so thank you again for your support with our fundraising activities.
Myton Hospice Fundraiser: On Friday 31st January, we invited our children to come into school wearing their favourite colour, in exchange for a donation of 50p for Myton Hospice, following the special assembly we held last week. Every child who made a donation received a raffle ticket and one ticket was pulled out of the hat – the lucky winner was Carter (Year 4) and he has received the special Myton Hospice Monty Bear prize. Thank you to everyone who contributed.
Myton Hospice Assembly: On Friday 24th January, we welcomed some children and adults from Castle Wood to join our assembly as we had a special visitor. Claire, from Myton Hospice came to talk to us about the Myton Hospice charity and all of the excellent work that they do to look after people who are very ill. We were all surprised to find out that patients can have special animal visitors to cheer them up and these have included a llama and even a reindeer in the past!

Christmas Fayre: On Monday 2nd December, our Christmas Fayre was a resounding success and Santa’s grotto was a particular hit with children big and small! Each class had the challenge to run their own stall with a prize being awarded to the stall which raised the most money. We would like to thank you for your support, as well as your donations.
Children in Need: Thank you to everyone who participated in helping to raise money for Children in Need by coming to school wearing their pyjamas on Friday 15th November, in exchange for £1 or purchasing merchandise.
Fundraising: As a result of our Macmillan Coffee Morning, as well as the break time cake sales, we managed to raise a grand total of £529.05. Thank you very much for all your support in raising money for this fantastic charity.
Macmillan Coffee Morning: Thank you to all of our parents, family and friends, who attended our coffee morning on Friday 27th September and ensured that it was a great success. The children did not miss out on the cake sale and enjoyed buying a cake (or two) to support Macmillan during the day. We will let you know how much we have managed to raise in a future newsletter.
Non-Uniform Day 20th Sept 24: We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone for your contributions of cakes for our Macmillan Coffee morning.
Summer 2024
Tea in the Park: On Wednesday 17th July, we invited children to come into school in non-uniform in exchange for a contribution to the charities of the University Hospital in Walsgrave. Parents were also invited to join us and their children for afternoon tea on the school field. This was a great success and everyone had a lovely time – we even saw the sunshine for the afternoon! We managed to raise £202.05 so thank you to everyone who supported us!
RNLI Fundraiser: Thank you for your contributions to our fundraiser last week. As a result of our children wearing blue non uniform for the day, we managed to raise £310.06. Thank you for supporting us and our local charities.
RNLI Fundraiser: On Monday 10th June, we held an assembly all about the good work that the RNLI do to support people who get into trouble in the water. This is a charity that is particularly close to Moat House hearts as there was a tragic incident three years ago on the South coast, involving a. local young man (Callum). Callum was a true hero as he saved several members of his family when they got into difficulty in the water, but unfortunately lost his own life whilst doing so. We would like to thank everyone for supporting us in raising money for the RNLI today by wearing blue non-uniform.

Non-Uniform Day: Thank you to everyone for your support in wearing non-uniform on Friday 2nd February in exchange for providing cat food and/or treats for our local charity “Fagin’s Waifs and Strays.” Kirsty and Pat were delighted with your contributions.
