Parents are being invited to support a gift amnesty organised by the Friends of Orchard & Shepherdswell Academy to raise money for school funds. Parents and staff are being asked to donate any unwanted Christmas gifts through the gift amnesty. Anyone who received gifts at Christmas or a birthday that aren’t quite to their taste, or have received two similar gifts, to donate them as raffle prizes to be given away at future fundraising events. Gifts can be donated at the two school offices.
