Queens' Den 2025
The joint Fundraising & Business Studies department's annual entrepreneurial fundraising event "Queens' Den 2025" has officially started with our 6 finalist teams busy selling their products and services to fellow pupils and their friends and family.
Our teams are:
-
Frost & Found - Year 7
-
Brookie Bros - Year 9
-
JNY - Year 10
-
Bookworm Designs - Year 7
-
Festive Treats - Year 8

Chocoberry - Year 7
Each team has been given £30 to set up their small business and they have been given the opportunity to sell their products and services once a week at lunchtime in the Dance Studio. These "Queens' Den Weekly Marketplaces" have been extremely busy with long lines forming and stock selling out quickly!
Grant News
Mrs Marks was awarded a grant of £1,200 from Edufund for a new treadmill and exercise bench for the PE department which have now been delivered and are already being used to their full advantage!
The Queens' School Development Fund
The Development Fund was set up to help provide and improve facilities and opportunities for our pupils. All contributions to the fund will be used for the things that the school may not otherwise be able to afford in the current funding climate.
After discussions with pupils we have decided that for academic year 2025/2026 we want to raise money to purchase a selection of outdoor equipment for our pupils to use during break and lunchtimes. Feedback from our pupils is that there is not much to do in the outside areas of school, and they really want to have some fun and exciting equipment to help make their free time more enjoyable. We also feel, by having more equipment outdoors, that those children who prefer to stay inside will be encouraged to spend their breaks outside.
Please click HERE to find out more about the Fund in more detail and how you can make such contributions.
Amazon Wishlists
Buying an item from the Queens’ School Amazon Wishlists is an easy way to directly support the teachers and pupils. Each department has their own list containing items that will enhance their lessons and they range vastly in price so there is an item to suit everyone’s budget. Please consider buying an item to thank a specific teacher or department or for the School as a whole.
The Amazon Wishlists can be found HERE.
Queens’ School 100 Club
The Queens’ 100 Club is a fun way to support the school and be in with a chance of winning a monthly cash prize. For only £24 per year you will be entered into a monthly prize draw to win 50% of the month’s takings. The other 50% will go directly to the School. All information can be found HERE.

The consistency and generosity of regular contributions by parents and carers is vitally important to our success so we thank you in advance for your support.
