Friends of Wymondham College Prep School
Friends of Wymondham College Prep (FOWCP) is made up of parents, carers, guardians and other community members working closely with the school to raise additional funds. When your child joins the school you automatically become a member.
FOWCP is about much more than simply fundraising. It exists to provide closer links between home and school and it is an excellent way to bring everyone together in support of the school working towards a common goal.
Our current main fundraising goals are the funding of an outdoor classroom/learning area and recreational play equipment. This will be linked to the Forest School provision, but will also be utilised for other outdoor learning opportunities.
We are a registered charity, our charity number is 1198845.
Please see attached below the Ts&Cs for the FOWCP SPRING PRIZE DRAW.
