There are many ways in which you can support the PA throughout your daily lives.

Discounted Tickets
 

Clothing Bin

We have a clothing bin located at the back of the carpark, another great way to raise money for our school! 

If you are thinking of having a clear out, we can accept:

• Clothing
• Towels
• Sheets
• Handbags
• Curtains
• Shoes
• Sleeping

(please put the items in bags before putting them into the bin)

We are unable to accept:

• Soiled rags 
• Carpet
• Rugs
• Glass
• Metal
• Paper
• Rubbish

The bin is run by kidsjustrecycle.co.uk. Items are hand sorted, graded and sold abroad. This provides an affordable way to get clothing to struggling communities in Eastern Europe, Africa and Asia. The charity also partner with organisations in the UK and provide blankets and sleeping bags for homeless charities such as 'Wrap Up London'.

Nothing goes to landfill, everything is recycled.

Easyfundraising

Big brands like Tesco, Amazon, M&S, Booking.com, eBay, Argos, John Lewis, Baker Ross, Clarks and 7,000 others want to give back to schools. Thats why they have partnered with easyfundraising, so when someone shops online with them, the brand gives back a percentage of what that online shopper spends to EFPA; for free. Its like using a cashback site, but instead of the money going to one individual, as a collective.

Name Labels

Did you know that the average child permanently loses nine things per school year? Parents are having to buy replacement items for stuff they’ve already bought once! Having to re-buy these items not only has a negative environmental impact but is also a financial worry. This is where personalised nametags come in. Labelling your childs items is essential to ensure that things do not get lost and that if lost, are returned.

EFPA have set up accounts with the following two providers which provide a percentage of sales back to the parent association. 

MY NAMETAGS

order online by going to www.MyNametags.com and ensure you use the School ID 71194 at the checkout

Order online at www.stikins.co.uk and use the school ID 6656

School Lottery

For just £1 a week you could be in with a chance of winning up to £25,000. 40 pence out of every £1.00 you spend on the lottery goes directly to our school for us to spend on enriching our children's school experience. We think that's a pretty amazing contribution with the added bonus of prizes to be won for those taking part.
