Friends of Temple Sowerby School

We have an active and supportive parents’ association, the Friends of Temple Sowerby School (FoTSS), which organises a range of events each year to raise funds for the school. Examples of these fundraising events include:

  • summer barbecue
  • auction of promises
  • village hall ceilidh
  • bingo nights
  • Macmillan Coffee Morning
  • refreshments at the Kwik Cricket tournament
  • school discos

These activities help to raise funds for the benefit of the children at Temple Sowerby CE Primary School. For example, FoTSS have donated funds towards the purchase of new Chromebook computers, contributed to the development of the school garden, purchased new books and most recently contributed towards the refurbishment of the play equipment.

The group also supports other charity fundraising that the school is involved with, such as our annual reverse '12 Days of Advent' calendar, which generates many donations for our local food banks.
