Come along to pick up some school uniform ready for September: save money, support recycle and reuse schemes, and fundraise all at the same time!

Anybody wanting to donate uniform that is no longer needed, please do so at either of the school offices (lower and upper) during school hours – please ensure it is labelled for FEGS. Thank you!
The FEGS Quiz Night this Friday has, sadly, had to be cancelled due to not having sold a sufficient number of tickets to host the event.
FEGS would like to thank those of you who have purchased tickets and confirm that you will receive a full refund via ParentPay.
We are very keen to hear from parents about the sort of events they would like to attend and, if possible, why you did not purchase tickets to attend the Quiz this week. This information would really help us to plan for future events.
Please email any feedback to: [email protected]
Attention; parents & Carers family and friends, Staff, Ex-Students and ‘Old Boys’

As you know, the quiz evening is fast approaching and we would like to make the best out of this event for our school, we would like to ask if you or your business/employer are able to help in any of these ways? …. These are great responsible business initiatives!:
*1. RAFFLE DONATIONS*
Depending on the nature of the business, your company/employer may be willing to donate goods or services we could use as raffle prizes, which would effectively be good advertising for them. Examples could include vouchers for free treatment (manicure, facial, etc), meal for two, discount off products or services (e.g. free first consultation meeting, free assessment and estimate, etc), cash donations or products themselves. We will promote/share your kind donations our social media pages.
Please do reach out to your employer/consider whether your company could contribute and, if so, contact us ([email protected]).
*2. MATCH FUNDING*
Match funding involves an employer/company matching the money raised by employees for the benefit of a charity. The exact terms of how this works and any caps that apply to the money matched would be set out in each company’s own policy.
Please ask your employer whether they offer match funding. You can do this by sending your employer’s HR team an email (below is a template/draft email you can adapt to use for this):
Template/draft to send your employer asking about match funding:
Dear [NAME]
I am writing to ask whether [NAME OF EMPLOYER] offer “match funding” support to staff involved in charitable activities?
The parents’ association of my [child’s/children’s] school (Friends of Enfield Grammar School is a registered charity, number 269212) organises activities to raise much needed funds for the school and I am hoping to be involved in the next event.
I know that some employers engage in match funding (matching the money raised by a member of staff, which then goes to the charity) and wanted to ask if this is something the firm/company] does?
Kind regards
Please Note: You are welcome to bring your own snacks, but NO drinks are permitted, other than drinks purchased from the FEGS Bar. Please be reminded that the school has a ‘no nuts on the premises’ policy. This event has a ‘no refunds’ policy.
Join us for the last concert of the year and join in the fun…..put Friday 12 July in your diary – tickets now available on ParentPay.
