Our Charity Work
At Pocklington School, contributing to our local community is a key part of our values and traditions and continues the culture of philanthropy that has been integral to the School since it was founded over 500 years ago.
Pocklington School’s Sixth Form-led charity week is a cherished tradition, eagerly anticipated by both pupils and staff each year. It not only brings a sense of excitement but also offers a chance to reflect on the world beyond school. The entire senior school community unites to organise various fundraising activities, supporting four charities selected by the academic houses.
For the 2024/25 year, the chosen charities are:
- Pocklington Rugby in the Community
- The Bat Conservation Trust
- Muscular Dystrophy Association
- Cancer ResearchUK
Additionally, there are specific charity appeals and events throughout the year that benefit various causes.
For the 2024/25 period, the supported charities include:
Community Action Programme
The Community Action Programme offers Sixth Form students the opportunity to positively impact the wider community and improve people’s lives.
This year, students from Pocklington School are volunteering with various charities and organisations as part of the programme.
