DONATE
Want to help support Mayfield Primary School? Come along to any of our events, support us by volunteering your time, ask your workplace to support us or donate any time through Just Giving.
Donate when you shop online, without spending an extra penny!
Did you know when you shop online you could be raising funds for the school? Simply sign up to EasyFundraising, start your shopping journey from there and a percentage of what you spend will go to the school.
Whether you're doing your weekly shop, booking a holiday, shopping for household items or even buying train tickets, you could be donating to the school without spending any extra money yourself.
Follow these simple steps:
Register at easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/maps/
Select MAPS Mayfield Primary School as your chosen charity
When you shop online, start your shop at easyfundraising and a share of your spend will go directly into our fundraising pot
Or you can set up Donation Reminder so you are reminded to donate through EasyFundraising when you visit a relevant website
There are over 7,000 registered retailers, including booking.com, Amazon, Argos, John Lewis, The Trainline, Tui and The Works. All the major supermarkets are on there too so even your weekly shop can help our school!
It's an easy way for extended family and friends to help - please spread the word!
DONATE VIA JUSTGIVING
We have recently set up a JustGiving profile for the PTA meaning you can now make anonymous donations to the school.
Donations through JustGiving can be used for:
One-off or recurring monthly donations with GiftAid included
Setting up a fundraising campaign for the PTA - instructions on how to set up your own Just Giving fundraising page can be found here

Donating money is not the only way to contribute; donating your time is just as valuable - it all helps our school become an even better place.
Keen gardener?

There are loads of ways you can help - and you can dip in and out of these projects and still make a real difference to Mayfield life.

Ask your company to help
Whether it's supporting you to volunteer or helping the school by providing goods or a service, your employers can help the school grow.
Here are some ideas of how your employer could help:
Supplies for classrooms - this could be anything from laptops and iPads to gluesticks and pens. Can your company help?
Outdoor materials - fencing, bark, sand, paint, gardening equipment - our grounds need constant maintenance and anything your company can provide that will save the school money would be gratefully received
Our events - could your company help us by gifting a prize for a raffle? Or donate refreshments we could sell? Or would they like to sponsor one of our events? There are lots of ways your company could help
Does your company have a Corporate Social Responsibility policy? If so they may support you to volunteer at school or at PTA events. Many companies offer Match Funding where any money you raise whilst volunteering is matched by them, making your effort even more valuable to the school
These are just examples - if you think your employer can help us, please contact us
Support our library
The library is a fantastic resource and we are really lucky to have such an amazing space for our children to grow their love of reading.
Thank you to those of you have donated books to the school over the years - we've had a great selection given to the school which is fantastic! There are a few books that are really in demand and so the school librarian has put together a wishlist of books that she would love to see added to the library's stock.
If you're buying books or shopping on Amazon, please consider buying one of these for the school, it would be hugely appreciated!
Don't forget, when you're buying on Amazon a percentage of your spend can be donated straight to school by signing up to EasyFundraising (details above. It's free money for the school!
