Who are we and what do we do?

The Friends of St. Cuthbert Mayne is a group of parents who work together to organise events and activities  to provide additional funds for the school.The Friends are an integal part of school life and meet several times a term to discuss ideas and plan events. It is a great way to meet people as well as having your say on how funds can be raised and spent.

Last year, 2008/09, the Friends raised, with the incredible support of the parents an exceptional £16,174. The highlights of the year were the May and Christmas school fairs, the wonderful Quiz Night and the Sponsored Bike Ride. 

 Funds were allocated to a number of great initiatives including:

* Library books for the school library
* A trophy cabinet
* ICT equipment
* Enhancing the school garden
