• Congratulations and Thank You!

  Fri 09 Jul 2021

  Thank you to everyone who supported Joshua Day in school.  The children raised over £1,500 which was amazing!  A message from the trustees of the Joshua Project below.  

   

  A message from the trustees

  I would like to say a very big Thank You to you and everyone at Buckland School for your amazing fundraising and support.  I promise you that everyone at Joshua is very appreciative, especially at this difficult time when so many Charities are finding it difficult to access funds.  Unfortunately for us, the recent Government decision regarding overseas aid has meant that we did not receive the promised funds and consequently, Joshua has had to find £12 500, which is not easy for such a small charity.  Your donation will mean that our projects will not be brought to a sudden halt, but we can continue to support five centres that would otherwise have been badly affected.  I know this will make a huge difference to the children who attend the centres. Many thanks again to you, the staff and especially to the children and their families.  We are very grateful.

• Snow Closure

  Fri 01 Feb 2019

  Given the current weather conditions and forecast we have made the decision to close the school on Friday, 1st February.   The school and surrounding area have a significant amount of snow on the paths and approach roads and for safety reasons, this seems to be the most appropriate action.  Apologies for any inconvenience caused. 
  We anticipate to be open on Monday and look forward to seeing the children then.
