Fundraising Initiatives

School Lottery

The FOWS school lottery raises much-needed income every week. Each ticket costs £1, and it's a welcome surprise when that email appears in your inbox telling you that you're a winner!  The prize money and money FOWS raise from the lottery is dependent on how many tickets are brought, so the more sold, the larger your prize and the bigger the donation to FOWS.

Thank you to everyone who has purchased tickets so far! This is open to everyone, so why not see if other family members would like to buy a ticket and support our school in this way?

Match Funding

Another way of supporting us is to find out whether your company offers match funding. Many companies will match the amounts raised at our events (up to £1000), and over the past few years this has raised additional funds which have been gratefully received. If your company offers match funding, please let us know.
