Inspire Partnership News

We are delighted to announce that Inspire Partnership will be merging with The Synaptic Trust, which currently has three schools in Croydon. This partnership has been approved by the Department for Education and the trustees of both organisations. Both Inspire and Synaptic engaged in a rigorous selection process as we were each looking for potential trusts to partner with. We believe that we are stronger as part of a larger trust than continuing in a smaller group alone. Synaptic closely aligns with our values and ways of working, making an excellent match for our trusts to come together.

The formal process for coming together will be finalised in early 2020, but staff from Inspire will begin working with staff in Synaptic schools in October, ensuring a smooth transition for both staff and children.

Greenwich Food Bank 

Foxfield will be supporting our local Greenwich Foodbank this year.  We are asking for donations of tinned, non-perishable or dry food or toiletries.  Examples, though not limited to:  any tin of:  peas, carrots, fruit, custard, rice pudding, fish, meat, long-life milk, fruit juice or toiletries.  Please bring donations to the round table outside the Leadership Suite by October 17^th so that they can be delivered to the Foodbank over half term.

You may not realise that the primary schools in Greenwich contribute almost 15% of the Greenwich Foodbank’s annual food intake during the short period of harvest. Without your support each year they would not be able to meet needs of those in our community experiencing crisis.

Many thanks, not just from Foxfield, but from all the volunteers at the Foodbank and the many individuals and families we help week after week throughout the year.
