CPC parents fundraise again

Cross & Passion College's Parents Association has raised some 30,000 euros for the college over the last 10 years.



The funding was used for for items such as repairing the roof and repainting the school's refectory and renovation in the Assembly Hall.

The most recent fundraising event was the annual Summer Fair, held on a sunny afternoon in the College's Assembly Hall and grounds.





"It's our way of providing for things that simply couldn't be funded out of the Capitation Grant," says Mary Darker of the PA. "This year we're trying to raise enough to complete the provision of computers in the Computer Room."

Mary emphasised the role of her fellow parents in the organisation and running of the Summer Fair and the Christmas Draw that are the main fundraising events, and she thanks the business community for their support.
