Friends of Woking High School

Who Are We?

The Friends of Woking High School is a registered charity of England and Wales registration 1053122.

As a parent or carer of a child at Woking High School, you automatically become a member of the Friends, as your child will benefit from the activities of the Friends. Our role is to raise funds to enhance our children’s education and experiences at Woking High School through the provision of additional resources to the school.

You are important and are integral to the success of the Friends!

The Friends recognise that many people are willing to support fundraising efforts but don’t always have the time or interest to attend meetings or help out at events. We have therefore made it really easy for you to support the Friends and have 4 main ways to give.

PRIZE CLUB
We are always looking for more members to join the Prize Club - remember, the more members, the bigger the prize!

DONATING BY SCOPAY

Every school year we request a voluntary donation through Scopay of £20 per child. Your £20 donation goes a long way in raising funds and is by far our most successful method of fundraising – thank you for your continued support.

GIFT AID

Gift Aid allows us the Friends to claim 25p from HMRC for every £1 you give. Please update your gift aid details on Scopay under YOUR INFO>GIFT AID

DONATE WHILE YOU SHOP – AT NO EXTRA COST TO YOU!

For every penny you spend with your favourite online retailer, a percentage is donated to the Friends. There’s no additional cost and no hidden catches! Please click on the link below to find out more and sign up.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE WE CAN MAKE!

Your donations this academic year have enabled us to support funding requests from:

· English Department

· Maths department

· Science Department

· Languages Department

· Drama Department

· SEN Department

· Exam Department

· PE Department

· Food & Nutrition Department

· Music Department

· Facilities

So, because of your generous donations, the Friends of Woking High School are able to provide all our children with the benefit of a few added extras.

Please could you convey my heartfelt thanks, and the thanks of the whole Science Department, for accepting our bid to replace the goggles and visors for the whole department after we donated them all to the NHS, so that we can continue to deliver the science curriculum effectively. I am certain our students will also be grateful to be able to participate in hands-on practicals.

Catharina Nicholls, Senior Science Technician

Thank you again for the iPad that you kindly agreed to fund for the Science Department. I have been able to use it this week to take photos of some of the activities that have been happening in the Science department and post these to our Twitter feed (@WokingHighSci). If you would like to take a look on Twitter you'll be able to see what a difference it will make for us to be able to post photos of our activities again and raise the profile of our department and school in the wider community. We have also started to use it to keep a record of our practical work which will be an invaluable resource within the department.

Mrs L Pollard, Specialist Leader in Education of Science
