December 2020
The Fitzharrys School Association is currently raising money for new outdoor furniture for every year group, as seating was identified as a key priority by students.
Creating a GoFundMe page, the FSA initially hope to raise £2500 to invest in lots of fantastic new picnic benches and help improve outdoor spaces for our students.
As part of planning around social distancing in the current climate, students are especially encouraged to spend break and lunchtimes outdoors, and Fitzharrys School has specific areas allocated on site for each year group bubble. The FSA is helping to fund the development of colourful, comfortable, social seating areas with a view to increasing the capacity available within each year group bubble, making each space more inviting and accommodating for the students.
The FSA would love to buy 15 new picnic benches similar to those pictured (3 for each year group). Each picnic bench costs just under £500, so it would be wonderful to raise enough to buy 1 for each year group (7-11) soon, with a view towards a spring term installation.
Thank you to all have donated so far - we are so grateful for your support.

The staff and students at Fitzharrys School warmly welcome you to our first ever virtual open evening!
Although we are sad not to able to receive you in person and invite you through our doors to share in all the wonderful things our school has to offer, we hope the virtual experience we have produced here on our website will ensure you have the information you need to help make easier the important decision of choosing the secondary school that is right for you.
Similarly to our regular open events, here you can explore the school site, experience some of the sights and sounds of our different departments, and meet the familiar faces of our Fitzharrys family.
