School Benefits

Every year the Friends of Rookesbury donate funds to support our children at school in a variety of ways.

In the 2006/2007 school year we donated over £5000 to meet requests from the staff and school. This funded a range of items including but not limited to;

• New kitchen (including cookers, cupboards, work surfaces and cooking equipment) for Garden Room
• Rookesbury Football Shirts for fixtures
• Goal Posts
• Mandolins
• Interactive software ( to accompany interactive white-boards)
• Bean bags drama room
• Cricket Wicket

We have also set aside a significant proportion of the money raised with your support to fund a special development project for the grounds near the pre-prep area. This is an ongoing project and further details will be posted here in due course.

In 2008/9 we made donations for:

• £2000 Budget for Initial landscaping phase of pre-prep play area project

• 2 sets of Springback Cricket stumps
• CD/Tape Player for Nursery Dept
