St. Anne’s Special School is a co-educational school catering for children, between the ages of 4 to 18 years, with moderate to severe/profound general learning disabilities. While we pride ourselves on providing a nurturing and inspiring academic environment that enables each child to reach their full potential, we face significant challenges. Currently, statutory funding is limited and often falls short of covering the essential costs required to support our children’s complex needs effectively.
Our school supports 75 wonderful students aged 4 to 18 with moderate to severe and profound learning needs across 13 classes.
This fundraiser will help provide tailored school tours for each class this year, including the cost of specialised transport.
All support from the community is greatly appreciated
