The school chooses one charity to support each year. We try to choose small charities, preferably local, with which the boys can have direct contact wherever possible. Fund-raising activities, which normally involve the boys, are spread throughout the year and also involve the Parents Association. We also contribute to St Michael’s Church via the collection at our weekly church service.

All schools receive constant unsolicited requests for support from all kinds of charities, so our policy is not to support any other charities apart from our officially chosen ones. Whilst we will always consider especially meritorious one-off requests, we prefer on the whole not to be asked. Parents who are involved with a particular charity which they feel would be worthy of our support should have a word with the Headmaster.
