Fundraising

A message from the Lantern Lane Fundraising Group…

The Lantern Lane Fundraising Group (formerly known as Cheers) is a friendly group of parents who raise funds for Lantern Lane Primary and Nursery School to provide extra resources, equipment and events for the benefit of all the children. Since starting in November 2006, we are proud to have raised thousands of pounds – thanks both to the commitment of those who organise our events, and to the generosity of those who support them. We have organised Summer BBQs, Silent Discos, Rainbow Raffles, Uniform Sales, Clothing Collections, Bubbles & Bingo, Quiz Nights and Christmas Fayres, Wreath Making and Cards. We also aim to ‘squeeze’ in a couple of cake sales too as they are always very popular!

How to get involved

New members to the group are always welcome, as are ideas and suggestions for future events. We meet locally and always in the evening to plan for forthcoming events. If you would like to get involved in any way (even if you cannot commit to an evening meeting), then we would love to hear from you.

If you contact the school office in the first instance, they will put you in touch with us.
