We are thrilled to share some exciting news that has recently been highlighted in the Tamworth Herald! Our school community has come together in an incredible way, showcasing the true spirit of collaboration and commitment to our children’s growth and development.

A Fantastic Fundraising Effort

Thanks to the generous support of Aviva’s match funding, we have successfully raised £4,137, a significant amount for our school. This initiative has allowed us to double our fundraising efforts, making a profound impact on our projects and resources.

Walking the Length of the Mease

As part of our fundraising activities, we organised a challenge for our children, families, and staff to walk, run, or jog the length of the Mease—an impressive 25km! This event took place during lunchtime, encouraging everyone to get involved and promote a healthy lifestyle.

The enthusiasm was palpable as participants donned their trainers and embraced the challenge. It was a wonderful sight to see our school community come together, united by a common goal and a shared commitment to our children’s futures.

Thank You to Our Supporters

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Friends of Mary Howard (FOMH), our dedicated families, and the wider local community for their unwavering support. Your contributions and encouragement have made this initiative a resounding success. Together, we are nurturing an environment where our children can thrive.

Exciting Developments Ahead

With the funds raised, we are eager to develop our sensory and growing garden. This space will not only enhance our school’s outdoor learning environment but also provide our children with hands-on experiences that foster a love for nature and learning. We cannot wait to see our vision come to life!

Thank you once again to everyone who participated and supported this initiative. Together, we are making a difference and helping our children to grow and flourish.

Stay tuned for more updates as we embark on this exciting journey!


We invite you to follow our progress and celebrate our achievements as we continue to work towards creating a nurturing and inspiring environment for all our children at Mary Howard Primary.
