Marist Friends
On behalf of the Marist Friends, welcome to the community! We are a group of volunteer parents dedicated to raising funds to enhance your child’s experience during their time at the school.
Some of our recent donations have included the purchasing of a new lighting system for the drama department in Bligh Hall, camera equipment for the photography department, ice cream vans at sports day, Christmas gifts for all pupils, percussion instrument for the music department, the new sports pavilion and lots more.
We are only able to do this with your help, we organise various fundraising events throughout the year, and also run the very popular pre-loved uniform shop (watch the weekly E-Bulletin for opening dates and times). We are always looking for extra help from fellow parents, either as part of the committee or in a less formal role, perhaps helping out at the Christmas fair, or outdoor cinema evening.
If you would like to volunteer or learn more about what the Marist Friends do, please feel free to email us at maristfriends@themarist.com or complete this form.
Our Pre-loved uniform shop will be open 2.30-4.30pm on Monday 24th June and again on the 3rd Sept for new starters. We are situated just to the right of the main steps into the senior hall.
We look forward to hearing from you and welcoming you to the school.
Best wishes,
The Marist Friends
