Sandroyd School - Friends of Sandroyd

The Friends of Sandroyd aim to host social events, which involve parents of children at the school as well as the children themselves.

Over the years the Friends have been able to raise several thousands of pounds for projects in particular departments that we feel might enhance the lives of the boys and girls and we have been able to support the designated charity of the term.

The committee consists of a representative from each year group at Sandroyd and The Walled Garden and a few members of staff. Do not hesitate to contact any of the members should you have any ideas for future events - see below for the names and contact details of the Committee.

There is a list of the present committee members posted on the Friends’ notice board in the school.

News and Diary Dates

Take your Partners…..

On a chilly February evening, the Year 8s played host to the girls of Knighton House and Hanford for the traditional reeling event at Sandroyd. Everyone entered into the spirit and good fun was had by all.

Leap Frogging Jokers

Very stylish jokers in the shape of frogs bearing princely crowns met a record number of parents and staff eager to test their wits on Leap Year Quiz Night. The first round (Leap Year facts) tested us all – with correct answers ranging from Fatty Arbuckle to Thomas Hobbes! It was a lively evening, which challenged most areas of the brain and helped to raise £750 for the Spring Term Charity – Help for Heroes. Start training for next year!

I Still Can’t Stand the Rain…

Don’t miss your chance to prepare for soggy cricket boundaries with a Sandroyd umbrella – still on sale at a mere £20 from the School Office.
