The Friends of Highclare School

The main purpose of the Friends of Highclare School is to promote fundraising and social interaction across the school’s three locations. 

Friends of Highclare School prides itself in the support it gives to the school. We have a committee that meets regularly to organise the various events and a number of parents who offer their help.

The Friends of Highclare School has raised money to help with, amongst other things, new video equipment and playground resources for all three Highclare School locations, this has been achieved by holding many varied activities, including children’s discos, family quiz nights and school fayres.

Should you require any information about the Friends of Highclare School, to offer help at events and functions or if you want to run an event, please come to a Friends of Highclare School monthly meeting or email them on: friends@highclareschool.co.uk

We really do appreciate your support.

Any donations of uniform for second hand sales can be dropped into the Senior School office during school holiday time, between 9.00am and 1.00pm.
