Fundraising
Prestwick Academy has several fundraising events each year to raise money for our School Fund. The School Fund is money that is raised by the school through fundraising events and thus ‘belongs’ to the school and can be used in a more flexible way. It is designed to fund projects, initiatives and extra-curricular activities that sit out with the curriculum and would therefore not be funded by our budget from South Ayrshire Council.
We have several ways we raise money for the school fund:
- Non-uniform days
- School Lottery
- Easyfundraising app
- Christmas Raffle (December)
- Summer Tombola (May/June)
The School Lottery and Easyfundraising app are simple ways you can support us and the letters below detail how you can sign up to each.
Each year we ask local businesses to donate prizes to our Christmas Raffle and Summer Tombola in exchange for free advertising on the night. If you are part of a local business and can donate please contact the school office and ask to speak to Dr Frew.
We also would be grateful from any small prizes that parents/carers could donate. Our staff often donate unused/unwanted Christmas or birthday presents. If you have any items you could donate to either the Christmas Raffle or Summer Tombola please contact the school office and ask for Dr Frew.
Your donations can make a huge difference to the life of the school and the experience of our young people. Thank you in advance for your support.
