The school has to take in more students from 2024. This will mean more classrooms, dormitories and resources such as text books and computers. We have submitted a number of grant applications, the latest is to the Clive Richards Foundation.

There are plans for a new building to house the students along with new dormitories and work has started on the foundations. More funds will be needed to complete the building so if you or you know someone who could support this project, please let us know.

Catherine wants to increase the agricultural profile so that they can produce more food in their fields as well as rearing hens, rabbits and a few cows. We have recently received a very generous donation from the Newton Abbot Rotary Club which has been match funded to help complete our Dairy Cow Housing Project. Many thanks.
