Fundraising
There are lots of ways you can help raise funds for FOCCS...
Stikins Labels
Stikins supply multi purpose labels that can be used on clothing, shoes, lunch boxes and anything else you can think of!
By ordering name labels through them with our special code hopefully you will have fewer items to replace and FOCCS earns money at the same time!
When you order please add the School Fundraising Number: 4313.
Easy Fundraising
Simply by registering with Easy Fundraising and placing any orders for products from a range of commonly used companies (Amazon, Argos, ebay, John Lewis, Marks and Spencers, Tescos and many more) you can help us increase our revenue.
It is really easy and you can install a direct link on your desktop.

Please deliver donations to the school office in a tied black bin bag to allow for quarantining.
