The Discovery Hub

We are raising money for The Discovery Hub, and we are now at just over £45,000, see this page for information about it and an artist impression of what it will look like. We're so excited to be raising money for such a brilliant building for the school.

Discovery Hub Target £100,000

Total raised so far £45,000

£45,000

Plans are being drawn up (see one potential design picture above) and we are currently receiving quotes for the costs. The projected costs are about £120,000 - £130,000 for the building plus groundworks and resources. We are hoping to accelerate our fundraising next year, alongside exploring any opportunities for grants, with a view to installing and opening the building in Autumn 2025.

Our new Discovery Learning Hub will be located next to our Community room. It will be a place during the school day for children to imagine, create and learn in a flexible and inspiring space with greater access to STEAM resources. It will bring together arts, science, practical skills and imagination in one purpose-built space.

As well as offering a unique learning opportunity for pupils, the new building will house ‘Keys Club’ a new after school club provision for children, offering quality provision for children in R-6.

We also hope that the Discovery Learning Hub become a community hub for community groups in the evenings and weekends, providing a new asset for local organisations from the creative and cultural sector.

18th October 2024 - 1730 - 1900
Southborough CofE Family Fireworks Night

We are very excited to announce that we will be holding our annual fireworks display at Southborough CoE Primary School on Friday 18th October 2024.

Adult and child ticket prices are the same as last year and we will share the pricing for everything on sale at the event once we have enough volunteers for the night. Please note a ticket must be purchased for everyone attending. The ticket price for under 3's will be free but a ticket must be added for entry to the event. There will be candyfloss, sweets, popcorn, hot chocolate and glow items to purchase on the night, as well as licensed Bar.

For this year's display the fireworks will be low bang, but for children who like the excitement but not the noise level please don't forget your ear defenders as unfortunately we do not have these available to purchase. Whilst they are low bang, they aren't no bang! Like last year, there will be a craft and quieter zone in the hall which will be available to anyone during the evening who finds it all a little too much!

The display itself will take place at 7pm (a little earlier if it starts to rain). Please remember to wear appropriate clothing - warm and suitable for wet weather including wellies as we will be outside on the grass area for the display. Children are the responsibility of the parent/carer and should be supervised at all times throughout the event!

We look forward to seeing you there!
