Our pupils take an active and ambitious approach to charity work and quickly build an understanding that some people need more help than others across the world. The school generally supports three charities at a time that always includes a local, national and international charity. As an outward facing international school firmly rooted in the local community, we encourage pupils to take part in events that benefit others.

Through non uniform days, sponsored events, collection of specific items and donation of Vivos, our school community has contributed to a variety of charities during 2016:

1. In March, Sport Relief (Easter Newsletter) 
2. Also in March, Readathon (Easter Newsletter)
3. In June, Charity Cricket Match for Cricket without Boundaries
4. Also in June, Giant Maths Lesson for Childline (Summer Newsletter)
5. In September, cake sales for Macmillan Cancer
6. In November, Link to Hope Shoebox Appeal
7. Also in November, our Talent Show for Children in Need
8. In December, Carol Service with donations for Crisis
9. Also in December, Christmas Jumper Day for Save the Children, SCWAD and Cirencester Foodbank.
