St Peter's School Association Trim Trail Fundraiser

St Peter's Primary school is diverse and inclusive school in the south of the London borough of Croydon. We have around 420 pupils and take pride in our close-knit family feel that nurtures all pupils and families and sense of local community. Prior to covid-19 a big part of that was the use of the trim trail play equipment in the school field. The children could use the equipment at lunch and breaktime, and as part of PE lessons but it was also open after school for families to gather and socialise outside of school hours. With playgrounds being closed and pick-ups and drop-offs disjointed parents and families have missed out on this social play-time. In attempting to re-open the play equipment it was discovered that the wooden equipment is rotten and unsafe for use. We are now raising money to install brand new metal equipment for the children and families of St Peter's to enjoy for many years to come. We are arranging fundraising events over the next few months. Please donate here and consider supporting our events to help us raise £10,000 for the equipment and installation. We are a registered charity (Number 1019291). Thank you!

We are delighted to share that Formark Scaffolding based in Whyteleafe have made a fantastic donation of £1000 towards the trim trail!

Thank you so much Formark on behalf of the St Peter's School community!

Our next event will be the Easter Extravaganza. Join us after school on Monday 4th April for some Easter fun on the school grounds.

The kids can enjoy completing the Easter trail to win a chocolate prize. There will also be face painting, lucky dip prizes, disco, cake sale, raffle tickets and second hand uniform available to purchase. All proceeds will go towards the trim trail. Please join us from 3.15pm younger siblings welcome, entrance is free.

Thank you to our amazing afternoon tea team who have organised the afternoon, and our volunteers tomorrow - heroes every one.

Bon Appétit!

This is the current state of the trim trail, taped off and out of bounds for the children at playtime.

We are hoping to install the new equipment later in the summer term. 

Our school community recently completed the Penny Wars competition, any loose change around homes was collected by the children in each class and we raised £622.12

You can see here a picture of what the brand new play equipment will look like - this is what we are working towards.
