The Friends of Cundall
The Friends of Cundall Manor is a committee made up of parents, who work on a voluntary basis, to arrange fundraising and social events for the school.
Members of the Committee are appointed to be responsible for various forms throughout the school. They inform parents of the various events taking place and most importantly introduce themselves to new parents to make sure they are aware of these events. It can be very daunting starting a new school, and not just for the children.
The Friends will make sure that even if parents do not already know anyone at school there will always be a friendly face to welcome them at each event. They will also encourage new parents to come along to coffee mornings so they are able to introduce them to others who have children in the same form.
A huge amount of effort goes into each event from selling tickets, sourcing raffle prizes, preparing food, serving and clearing up afterwards. As such, the Friends are always grateful to anyone who is able to help in any way!
The Fundraising Aim 2022 -2023
For the academic year, 2022-2023, the Friends are fundraising to develop the outdoor learning experience for our children. Top of the wish list is an Outdoor Classroom, a sheltered learning space that children can use for any occasions and to make the experience more comfortable when the weather is challenging. We will also be creating an outdoor Performance Space on the flat area known as Acre Hill, this will take the form of an outdoor “auditorium” utilising the existing bank to create raked seating and a roof for the performance space.
In order to meet this target, we intend to organise a Family Fun Day in September, a Christmas Fair, a Christmas Wreath Workshop and a Winter Ball. A quiz night in the Lent term, a wine-tasting evening at Dunesforde Vineyard and various sporting events amongst other things. Details will be announced via the Friends of Cundall Manor Facebook and Instagram pages.
