Dishforth C of E Primary School are fundraising for a full refurbishment of the Key Stage 1 toilets. This project is close to my heart, as I remember using these very toilets at school 35 years ago.

Sadly, they haven’t changed in this time — and they are now in desperate need of improvement. They leak, are difficult to clean, and are not a comfortable or welcoming space for our children.

We NEED to create a bright and clean environment, that the children can feel comfortable with — somewhere that reflects the caring, high-quality environment they learn in every day.

A quote has been provided by a Local Authority contractor for works totalling £9,000.00, which covers:

• Supply and installation of two new toilets and roll dispensers

• Supply and installation of new sinks, taps, and vanity units

• Removal of the old redundant heating system and boxing

• Supply and installation of new cubicle doors suitable for Key Stage One

• Supply and installation of wall “white rock” panelling

• Boxing in of heating pipework

• Non-slip vinyl flooring

Dishforth C of E Primary School doesn’t currently have the funds to make this project possible. Every contribution — big or small — will make a real difference.

Together, we can create a hygienic and cheerful space for our pupils, and for many future generations to come.
