Following a Black Friday boost, we have raised £799.69 through online sales with Easyfundraising. These valuable donations will go towards supporting student mental health and wellbeing activities in school, allowing more students access to our school’s specialist counselling and provisions. It’s easy to join us and #ShopForStringer go to https://public.dorothy-stringer.co.uk/ ds/pages/shop_for_stringer.aspx for more details. More Fundraising Updates A £5000 grant from Brighton & Hove Communities Fund earlier this year enabled us to work with Big Nature to put up much needed fencing for the Butterfly Haven. With the new fence now installed we will be grazing up to 100 sheep this winter that will help create the right conditions for many rare wildflowers and insects to survive. Year 7 students are also about to embark on planting over 400 trees from The Woodland Trust in our woodland. Two outdoor table tennis tables from funds donated by Scottish Power are now in place next to our football pitches.
Micro volunteering for the DOTS
Easy fundraising
We are looking for parents/carers to contribute small amounts of time, fun ideas and expertise to the DOTS (our Dorothy Stringer Parent Fundraising Group) to organising community and school events for 2022. It is always fantastic to see parents, friends and staff of Stringer supporting the school and some interesting ideas already been proposed. Next term we will having a ‘Meet and Greet’ event for parents and carers. This will be an opportunity to get together with our fundraising team and the Headteacher to hear about our achievements to date and how the money we raise might be spent. If you would like to join us, or are interested in finding out more or have ideas to share please fill in this form and we will get back to you with details of the meeting next term. https://public.dorothy-stringer.co.uk/ds/ Pages/parent_fundraising.aspx 27
