Fundraising at Les Quennevais School
Fundraising has always been at the heart of life at Les Quennevais School. It not only creates cherished memories for our students but also strengthens our connection with the wider community. Throughout the school year, our calendar is packed with opportunities to support both local causes and national charities. Events such as Christmas Jumper Day for Save the Children and Red Nose Day for Comic Relief are just a few examples of how we come together optimism and kindness to make a difference.
Over the years, our fundraising efforts have been incredibly successful—raising vital funds while uniting our school community. We are proud to have been recognised as a Super Fundraiser for Red Nose Day, placing us in the top 5% of schools across the UK. In 2025, Les Quennevais School was honoured as the runner-up for the Lenny Award, which celebrates exceptional fundraisers who inspire their communities, show enthusiasm, go the extra mile, and raise outstanding amounts. This achievement reflects the legacy of past fundraisers, the resilience and compassion of our students and staff, as well as our commitment to continuing this tradition for many years to come.
Fundraising events give us the chance to come together, have fun, and reflect on how fortunate we are—while making a real difference in the world around us. Beyond national campaigns, we regularly support local charities and the St Brelade’s community, working with local businesses to provide hampers and assistance for our neighbours. These experiences encourage independence and respect, as students take the lead in planning and organising events that benefit others.
Our students treasure these experiences, learning the importance of generosity, community spirit, and shared values that extend far beyond the classroom.
