Department Wish Lists 2025

As the days grow colder and the shops become increasingly more festive, we are launching our Department Wish Lists!

Each department has put together a range of items that would help to enhance the curriculum and bring the syllabus alive for their students.

Please take a look at the list below and if you would like to grant a wish for a department, please make a donation via the button below. CAF Donate, our secure online giving platform enables us to claim an additional 25% on your donation from the Government if you are a UK taxpayer, so please choose to tick the Gift Aid box. Once you have done this, please email our Marketing Team so that they can order your 'wish' and deliver to the department in the new year.

Those who prefer to donate via ParentPay can do so this year, as we have added the 'Wish Lists' to the site.
