In the charity's own words
Friends of Sherwood Park hold fundraising events such as fetes, disco's, quiz nights, sponsored events and the like, with the aim of providing necessary equipment, chairs, changing tables, playground, upkeep of the buses, Christmas presents for the pupils etc. Without the fundraising many of these things the school cannot afford, even though they are essential.
