Buy a Brick

What will the money raised
be used for?

The Parents Association and teachers are proud to launch the “Buy a Brick” fundraising campaign to supplement the funding provided by the Department of Education, which covers most, but not all of the items required for the new school.

Your donation will assist with the funding of a variety of items for example, classroom fixtures and fittings, ICT equipment, library resources, a portable stage and a sensory garden. Our aim is for the school to be a place where pupils can learn in an enriching and happy environment!

How do I purchase?

We appreciate the support from businesses/corporates who wish to buy a brick(s) and help in our fundraising effort, including parents who own a business or those working for a company who make such a donation as part of their corporate social responsibility initiative.

What you get in return

In return for your generous donation, your chosen text will be placed on a brick on the virtual brick wall of our school website. We will also be unveiling a thank you wall of sponsors when the new school is completed with the names of all those who kindly supported the school build.

We would encourage parents who own their own businesses/ those working for a company, who would like to support the school to please sponsor a business brick.

In recognition of your generous contribution we will display your company/business name on the virtual wall on our website and at a later date, on a wall display of sponsors in a prominent position in the new school.

Customise Your Brick

If you are buying multiple bricks to support the school you may choose to display just one brick with just one name or display all bricks bought with individual names e.g. current/past pupils’ names OR family name OR current/past teachers OR In Memory of a Loved One OR your name as a friend of the school.  If you want to include the years of attendance at the school, you may, but this is not required.
