Leatherhead Rotary presents supermarket vouchers to West Hill School Leatherhead Rotary Club would like to thank all the residents of Mole Valley who so generously supported their recent appeal to collect Sainsbury’s ‘Active Kids’ vouchers for West Hill School in North Leatherhead. Altogether, just over 6,500 vouchers were collected, which will subsequently be converted by the school into vital sports and healthy lifestyle equipment for the coming academic year. Over the past nine years, almost 60,000 vouchers have now been presented to West Hill School as a result of the Rotary Club's annual appeal. West Hill School is an Ofsted-rated ‘outstanding’ special school in Kingston Road, North Leatherhead with a current designation to support secondary-aged pupils from 11 to 16 with learning difficulties and Autism. From September 2016, West Hill will begin a four year transition to become a county-wide primary school for children with learning and additional needs and they will be welcoming their first two Reception classes in September. From January 2017, their assessment nursery for pupils with additional needs will be opened. For further information about the school, please visit www.west-hill.surrey.sch.uk Simon Edmands, the Rotary Club’s PR Officer, said "It's great that we can help Mole Valley residents support West Hill School and its pupils in such a simple but effective way. This really will make a big difference to so many of their activities." Leatherhead Rotary Club meet at 7pm most Wednesday evenings at the Police Federation Headquarters in Highbury Drive, Leatherhead.
