Friends of St Clare’s

St. Clare's School has a very active Friends Association. The Friends of St. Clare's organise social and fundraising events, and have one simple aim:

To work together to provide facilities and equipment which will further enhance the experience and happiness of all the children studying at our school.

We welcome all contributions whether they be time spent, specific skills or services rendered. Whatever your contribution we appreciate it and would like to hear from you.
