UPDATE: 22.06.2025  🚴. Last week we received an email from a parent telling us that their son, year 9 student, Will was planning to participate in the 170 mile Way of the Roses cycle ride over 3 days. 🚴‍♀️
 
Will is doing this with his dad to raise money for our athletics track. As you can imagine we were absolutely astounded and, on chatting with Will, heard about the training he and his dad are doing, building up the daily mileage needed. As his dad runs with the Tadcaster Harriers (our project partners who are also fundraising) they both want to complete this challenge for the benefit of the pupils and wider community.  They start this challenge in Morecambe on the 21st July and finish in Bridlington on the 23rd. There will be cake stops en route – especially on the first couple of days to get them over the hills!
Their TGS/Tad Harriers families really do appreciate what they are doing and will be cheering them on each day.
 

UPDATE – 10.06.2025:  We are so thankful that we have reached the great total of over £3,500 already.  Thank you to all our donors, incuding the local businesses listed below. 

Tadcaster Grammar School is currently working to raise £68,050 to fully reinstate our athletics track and high/long jump facilities for the benefit of the wider community.

Storm damage has rendered our very old, but much-loved athletics track beyond economic repair, and we are now looking to raise funds for the full refurbishment of this fantastic community resource. Once completed, the track will be available to use by our Trust primary and secondary schools and our project partners Tadcaster Harriers running club.  We will also be offering this facility as a safe space for a variety of other local organisations or groups to enjoy athletic activities.There is no similar accessible resource within a vast radius of the school’s location.

We have planned many opportunities for our students to help raise funds through a variety of events such as a whole school sponsored 1, 3 or 5K run/walk, and much more.  However, we really do need the help of our wider community, local  businesses and former students, to help us reinstate the athletics track, and long/high jump facilities as soon as possible.

Every donation we receive will make a huge difference to our project.  To make it easier for everyone to help us, and share our message, we have created a CROWDFUNDER page for all donation and appreciate any pledge, no matter how small.  Please CLICK HERE to visit our Crowdfunder page… don’t delay – our fundraising page is only available until Tuesday 22nd July!  Thank you!

For more information please email us (c.thompson@tgs.starmat.uk) and one of the fundraising team will come back to you

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to donate to this important project – we are incredibly grateful to you all.  We look forward to revealing our permanent ‘Wall of Fame’ on completion of the project but would like to offer special thanks to the following donors:
