Fund raising for the Library Project: We are almost there!


Currently we need to raise £50,000 for equipment and we need your help. This library is being created for the use of every student in our school and ultimately for community use as well.  As you would expect, Governors will only sign off on this project if the funding is secure.

Therefore, I am asking for help in the following ways to ensure that your child has the best learning environment we can provide:

1. A cash donation, for example £20 per family but any size of contribution would be very helpful

2. When shopping on line please use Easygiving, details are on our website, through the PTA link, especially if you are booking a holiday or buying insurance.

3. Click on the adverts on my blog every time you look at it.



4. Buy a brick and have your family name in our new library for the next fifty years of Winston.

Mrs Cotter and Mr Fisher are busy planning a number of other fund raising events and I will be asking you, later this week, to consider if the company you work for will help, by match funding the money raised by the PTA, a registered charity.
This year is the 50th Anniversary of The Winston Churchill School.  We are celebrating this with a number of activities including a production at the Rhoda MaGaw theatre, specially written by Mr Jolly and Mr Parsons, a commemorative postage frank and our library and planetarium.  An essay written by Sir Winton Churchill was in the news this week and is relevant to our new building as it was about the importance of astronomy to our future and yesterday it was reported that astronomers have detected a record seven Earth-sized planets orbiting a single star.  I want to provide our students with the opportunity to explore this area of science.

Please help us to create a facility that will stand the test of time

 for the next fifty years.
