What an achievement!
In this time we have raised
well over a million pounds!
We do this through our fantastic
fundraising events and activities.
But, without your amazing
generosity it would not
have been possible for us
to have raised so much.
Pat yourself on the back!
Our thanks go out to all those,
past and present, who have been
involved with SAPA.
It is only because of you that the
tradition continues and every year
the boys enjoy a school life
enhanced with better facilities
and more opportunities.
SAPA was formed in 1947.
One year after the College was opened!
Our sole aim is to raise much needed
funds to enable us to purchase essential items for the college that can't be funded
by the annual school budget. Times are
tough and our valuable work and
fundraising really makes a difference
to the school.
Where does the money go?
The money raised over the years has enabled the purchase of many items, from musical instruments to minibuses,
flooring for the College gym to cricket nets. We even raised sufficient funds to build the original swimming pool.
One of our more recent purchases includes a KS3 mobile library with 650 books to enhance the boys learning.
Our latest purchase is a state-of-the-art laser cutter for the Design & Technology department which is a necessary purchase for the continued high-quality education that Saint Ambrose strives to provide for your boys and it will play a vital role in multiple subject areas as well as extracurricular activities and school projects.

There are also many volunteers, past and present, who we are extremely grateful to.
These volunteers attend meetings, help out at events or simply contribute in other ways.
All help, no matter how small, is extremely valuable to our committee.
A HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR VOLUNTEERS!
A huge thank you!
Our thanks go out to all the committee members past and present who have supported SAPA throughout the years. Many of our helpers stay with us as their boys pass through
the school so you will always see familiar faces at our functions.
Sometimes we see helpers return as their grandchildren take their place in the school.
So far we believe the longest serving SAPA member was Samantha Hall who left the committee in 2016 after an amazing 18 years of service and previous committee members can still be found attending meetings and events even when they have no boys left in school.
Retiring committee members are made honorary members and are always welcome
to attend meetings and functions whenever they wish.
Get in touch!
Why not
join us and
get involved?

time to SAPA please do

rewarding.

why not come along and join
in, we promise you a warm
welcome.
Be part
of the SAPA
community.

our amazing cause - to
improve facilities.
