Fundraising
We use a variety of ways to raise funds for the school.
These include:
- Through the Friends of Ysgol Crug Glas’ Summer Fete and Christmas Fayre
- A JustGiving page found at – https://www.justgiving.com/ysgolcrugglas/donate Anyone taking part in a sponsored event can open a page linked to our Friends account for sponsorship. Gift Aid is then claimed on the Friends behalf by JustGiving and credited to our account.
- eBay – The Friends are also registered as a recognised charity on eBay , so funds can be contributed whenever you sell an item.
- Rags 4 Riches clothing collections – keep an eye out for dates for this.
- easyfundraising.org.uk – do all your online shopping via this website and a small percentage comes to the school…it all soon adds up.
We are Fundraising for a Drive Deck which will cost £11,000.
The Drive Deck is accessible to all users regardless of existing seating provision and disability. It’s a bit like a go-kart that can be safely driven both in and outdoors, encouraging the pupils of all ages to use their thinking and physical skills together. The Drive Deck has encouraged motivation in the children and young people to explore independent movement and their environment.
Instead of the children waiting for a carer to push them, they learn that they have control over their own movements. The Drive Deck has the capability of teaching the children anything from cause and effect up to the ability of driving their own wheelchair using a joystick.
