Giving day raises over £340,000!
You can still make a donation to the appeal by visiting blueskybursaries. eastbourniansociety.org where you can also view the Caffè Sospeso film, which shows how small donations can make a big difference.
T hank you to everybody who supported our first-ever Giving Day on Tuesday 11 March 2025. Our global community of OEs and OAs, parents, staff, pupils, and friends came together for 36 hours of
celebration and support for our schools, St Andrew’s Prep and Eastbourne College. We raised over £340,000, which included donations made on the day bolstered by some very generous match funding. The atmosphere at St Andrew’s
and the College was joyful, with pupils, parents, staff and others all getting involved with the many events going on, from tugs of war to abseiling down Memo- rial Tower, cake and sweet sales, and an evening jazz concert to round it all off.
All the money raised will go to the Blue Sky Bursaries Appeal , which has the ambitious aim of providing the equivalent of up to 40 fully-funded, means- tested bursary places at any one time by 2028.
