The Friends of James Wolfe School (FJWS) raises funds to provide equipment, activities & entertainment for the children attending the school. We have subsidised school clubs and various art & cultural visits/performances. We continue to update the classrooms, library literacy resources and the playground. We will support the school as it expands to a four form school consisting of two campuses.
