New Hand-Mixers for Food Tech (£400)
Successfully Delivered!
We are delighted to announce that one of our key fundraising goals has been achieved, thanks to the incredible generosity of the Friends of Wyvern and our wider community. A set of brand-new hand mixers has been purchased for our Food Preparation and Nutrition classes, and they are already making a difference in the classroom. The new mixers have brought an exciting dynamic to our Food Technology lessons. Students are now able to engage in more hands-on activities, from creating delicate Swiss rolls to mastering a variety of cake recipes. These practical experiences are vital in helping students develop essential skills and confidence as they prepare for their GCSE qualifications. Ella Hussey, Curriculum Leader of Design & Technology, shared her enthusiasm: "These mixers have transformed our lessons, allowing more students to participate in practical tasks simultaneously. This investment enriches our learning environment and ensures that every student has the tools to succeed. We are incredibly grateful to the Friends of Wyvern for making this possible." The Friends of Wyvern have been steadfast supporters of our school, raising funds to enhance the learning experience for all our students. This latest contribution highlights their dedication to fostering creativity and excellence in education. We also want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who contributed to our fundraising efforts. Your support is helping to elevate the quality of our lessons and inspiring our students to explore their full potential. As one student remarked: "Having these mixers means we can all work on practical tasks at the same time, which makes lessons so much more fun and engaging!" Together, we are making a real difference in the lives of our students. Thank you, Friends of Wyvern, for your ongoing commitment to our school community.

We are thrilled to announce that following an incredibly generous £3000 donation by a Wyvern parent who was inspired by our students' performance in Shrek, we have purchased a brand-new Behringer sound mixing desk and radio microphones. The purchase of this audio-visual equipment was a request by the donor and will be used in future Wyvern performances including our Summer Concert on 17th & 18th July. On behalf of Friends of Wyvern we sincerely thank you for this amazing donation to the school which will help take our students' performances in the arts to a new level.
