Instilling Positive Values through Charitable Giving
When children are educated about charity, they learn to be considerate of others, to appreciate what they have, and to demonstrate compassion. By placing considerable emphasis on charitable giving, our school instils kindness and empathy in our girls, and they are also encouraged to share ideas for fundraising and select the causes that we champion.
Our girls are eager to support charities that are based in the surrounding areas. As a result, we have strong connections with the Kensington and Chelsea Foundation and the Rugby Portobello Trust. Our close ties with St Matthew’s Church, our local parish, allow us to support meaningful projects in conjunction with Revd Will Coleridge. We also celebrate the harvest with an annual special assembly, collecting food and toiletries from our families to be donated to needy families in the community.
In addition, our school seeks to advocate global initiatives to ensure that our efforts at charitable giving remain relevant and impactful at all times.
Donating to our Ambitious, Transformative Bursary Fund
Attending Pembridge Hall is an extraordinary experience. We are immensely proud of the opportunities and experiences offered at the school, which have helped shape and transform the lives of so many girls over the years.
Over the last few years, we have worked as a community to develop the Bursary Fund. The fund serves two purposes – namely, to provide:
- Bursaries, which are an essential safety net for parents of current students who have unexpectedly fallen into financial or personal difficulty; and
- Scholarships, giving talented boys, including pupils from less advantaged backgrounds, the opportunity to join our school and contribute to our vibrant and diverse community.
This year, we are re-launching the Bursary Appeal. We plan to raise funds to support at least one additional pupil on a full bursary each year while also establishing a significant endowment fund. If you would like to find out more about the school’s Bursary Appeal, please contact the school directly or email us on admin@gsct.org.uk.
