Welcome...

...to the Wylam First School "3R's" Appeal website. The purpose of our appeal is to provide Wylam First School with a dedicated library, music room and information technology space. We aim to achieve this goal through a combination of new building and refurbishment of existing space. This re-organisation will not only create space for the library, but also provide the additional benefit of a fully integrated early-years unit for the Nursery, Reception and Year 1 classes.

To do this we need to raise £100 000

On these pages you can follow our progress towards achieving our goal.

• You can see how much we have raised so far and (where they have given permission) find out about the organisations and companies whose generosity is helping us to achieve our target.
• Learn about future fund raising events
• Find out how you can help the appeal
• We will also have some fun activities for children and adults, including competitions, jokes, book recommendations, art work and poems.

Appeal to Wylam residents
An appeal has now been sent out to every home in the village. We hope this effort will make a substantial contribution to our total. Please do all you can to support us and encourage others to do so.

Only Smarties have the answer...

and it's £950, the amazing total for the childrens' "Great Smartie Challenge"

JET Smile Card
Help the appeal when you buy fuel at the JET garage in Crawcrook. Each litre of petrol purchased means 1p towards the appeal. Simply ask them to scan it on to the school SMILE card held behind the till. 1p is donated for every £1 spent in the shop and 15p when using the car wash. Nearly £50 accumulated so far!

How you can help...

If you buy books from Amazon.co.uk, or any of the other affiliates we are allied with using a link from this site, or a search box below the sites we are affiliated with will donate a percentage of the value of your purchase to the appeal.
