Donate to make a difference this Christmas!

Our academy is proud to be supporting the Astley Sports Village Christmas Gift Appeal 2025, helping local families in Tameside who may be facing financial hardship this Christmas.
 
For over five years, the appeal has supported more than 50 families annually, ensuring children wake up to presents on Christmas morning and, where needed, providing gas and electric meter top-ups to keep homes warm over the festive period.
 
How you can support the appeal
 
Our Reception is an official drop-off point for brand-new children's gifts until Thursday 11 December.
 
Suggested donations include:
Toys, Lego, dolls, prams, scooters, puzzles, games, colouring sets, remote control cars, hygiene sets, make-up sets and more.
 
You can also make a financial donation, which will be used exclusively to purchase gifts or essential support for these families. Financial contributions are welcome from parents, carers, community members and businesses.
