The Friends of Magdalen College School is a small, dedicated group of teachers, parents and volunteers who work together to raise money for additional resources and opportunities for our students. We believe that school life should be about more than lessons, and that by working together we can help make Magdalen an even better place to learn, grow and thrive.

Over the years, our fundraising has helped to make a real difference to school life. We have contributed towards major projects, including the relaying of the Astro pitch and the purchase of the school minibus, enabling students to attend fixtures, trips and other events. More recently, we have helped to upgrade the school's sound and lighting equipment for productions and performances, provided supplies for extracurricular clubs such as Gardening, Cooking, Dungeons and Dragons and Green Power Racing, and supported the provision of equipment for the Duke of Edinburgh's Award and costs associated with activities such as the Maths Challenge.

Looking ahead, we have some exciting ambitions. We are exploring ways to support the Inclusion department by funding laptops for students with additional needs, as well as helping to improve conditions in our Computer Technology and Science labs, which can become unbearably hot during the summer months. Our main priority, inspired by feedback from both parents and students, is to help fund more covered outdoor spaces where students can sit, socialise and relax during break and lunchtimes, whatever the weather.

We raise funds through a variety of fun and sociable events throughout the year. From Easter Bingo, our 200 Club and rainbow raffles to cocktail-making evenings, Christmas wreath-making, Year 7 socials and pottery painting, there are plenty of ways to get involved. Our events bring people together as a community while raising valuable funds to enhance the experiences and opportunities available to our students.

There are lots of ways you can support us, and every contribution makes a difference. You could:

• Attend our events
• Help spread the word
• Volunteer to plan or supervise an activity/event
• Donate a raffle prize or contribute towards our fundraising goals
• Attend meetings and share ideas for future events

Whether you have lots of time to give or can only offer a little, every bit of support is appreciated. Together, we can continue to make a positive difference to life at Magdalen College School.
