The Craigholme School Parents’ Association (CSPA) aims to foster communication and good relations between parents and the school. It offers support through time, talent and funds which are raised through a series of annual events including a parents' themed dance and Christmas Fair. In session 2009/10 the CSPA raised over £13,000 for school. Funds were spent on the transformation of the old gym hall into The Hub; a modern social area for J4-S6 pupils, complete with a cafe and plasma TV.
Online Shopping
Craigholme Parents' Association has teamed up with leading UK retailers to create a fundraising web shop. Over 100 retailers are accessible through the web shop including Marks & Spencers, John Lewis, ELC and Littlewoods. Many retailers provide offers exclusive to the web shop and offer additional incentives such as free delivery.
Every time someone uses the web shop, money is automatically earned for the association. There are no additional charges and anyone can shop online at our web shop. Please encourage your friends and family to use this link too. You can find the web shop at www.buy.at/craigholme
NB: All purchases are made through the individual retailer's own secure website. Commission earned on each sale will be used by the CSPA to benefit the school. Please support this worthy cause.
