URGENT APPEAL – Water main replacement

We urgently need to raise BDS$7,000 as our contribution towards the BDS$16,000 replacement cost for a water pipe from the science lab to the main road.

It has rusted and is delivering discoloured water to the school. The PTA and Board of Management are also contributing to the cost.

We need to start work urgently but need your assistance.

You can donate now either online here, by cash to the Treasurer Debbie Hyland-Hall (234-6317) or bank transfer using details at the bottom of this page. No amount is too small.


Wi-Fi Implementation

This year, the new normal for Combermere will include remote teaching.

The ‘blending teaching’ approach will see staff teach an entire class, as normal, but with half in the classroom and the other half online.

To make the remote learning successful and seamless, the school requires a robust Wi-Fi system throughout the compound and the alumni association has taken up the challenge.


Outdoor Seating

Benches are to be built and installed around the school to provide much needed additional outdoor seating. We aim to do this before the Easter holidays. The cost is $8,500 of which we have raised $1,600. Please can you either contribute or donate a bench which costs $850. You can make an online donation here, by cash to the Treasurer Debbie Hyland-Hall (234-6317) or bank transfer using details at the bottom of this page.

Security Cameras

A decision has been taken to install security cameras to cover blind spots, around the school compound, during and after school hours.


PA System

A public address system is required for the school and it is the intention that this will be sourced and installed at the school before the start of the summer holidays.
