FOSA – Friends of St. Anselm’s

Our Aim:

All parents/carers are automatically members of the Friends of St. Anselm’s College.  The Friends exist to encourage, promote and foster active co-operation between the parents or legal guardians of students, the staff and others associated with the College.  We strive to protect and further the interests of the College, its staff and students and to encourage activities benefiting the education and welfare of all attending the College.

Projects and activities we have been involved in:

In recent years we have supported a number of projects, including, the purchase of two minibuses, immersion trips to Sierra Leone, sporting tours home and abroad, including trips to the USA and Canada, South Africa and Italy.  We have also supplied lighting for the College Hall to improve facilities for drama productions and purchased new furnishings for the Outwood Sixth Form.  Most recently we have furnished two classrooms, installed new blinds in the hall, provided ten outdoor picnic benches and bought ten new PC’s for the D&T department to enable our students to produce the very best design products and work. We are currently raising funds to renovate areas within the College library which provide a wellness area, with quiet study pods, all of the ideas and suggestions from the students themselves.

How do we raise funds?

We run a “500 club”, details of which are available on the FOSA 500 page, with membership set at £5.00 per month.  Half the income is returned to the members as prizes each month and half will be used by FOSA to support and improve the College life for the students. Prize money is currently set at £180 for first prize and £60 each for second and third, all three prizes are awarded each month.  Furthermore, we hold an annual Christmas Showcase Event, student discos and quiz nights.  We are always open to new suggestions and ideas!

How can I get involved?

We would like to welcome you to the Friends and hope that you will take an active part by supporting the functions, joining the committee or offering assistance in any other way you can.   The meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 7.30 pm in the College and all are welcome to attend.

Yours Faithfully,

Rob Hardman
