Highfield is celebrating a record-breaking figure for charitable giving this year - students have raised over £21,700, while parents and the wider community have donated well over £70,000 to charities supported by the institution.

The school’s charitable activities include work in a deprived Ugandan rural community: helping to complete the building of a primary school, running teacher training activities, sponsoring children and much more.
