Your School Lottery
We are excited to announce a fundraising initiative for the Friends of Fairlop Primary School (FOFPS) giving you the chance to win some great prizes.
We have joined ‘Your School Lottery’ to launch our own FOFPS school lottery.
How does ‘Your School Lottery’ work? Fairlop children will benefit directly regardless of who wins; this lottery has been set up specifically to raise money and make a difference for our children!
For every ticket played a percentage goes to FOFPS. Tickets for the lottery cost just £1 per week. There is a guaranteed cash winner for our school every week and the chance to win the £25,000 jackpot.
Tickets can be purchased online by clicking the ‘buy tickets’ link on the FOFPS page of the site: https://www.yourschoollottery.co.uk/lottery/school/friends-of-fairlop-primary-school
Tickets can be purchased as a one-off payment or as a Direct Debit.
Prizes: The draw takes place every Saturday, ‘Your School Lottery’ will notify the winners via email.
Match all 6 numbers and you win the JACKPOT! There are also special draws with one-off prizes throughout the year.

Please feel free to share this with relatives and friends who may also want a chance to win prizes whilst supporting your child’s school. Many thanks in advance for your support with this, fingers crossed that Fairlop will get a jackpot winner!

About the Friends of Fairlop Charity
The Friends of Fairlop have been raising money for the children of Fairlop for many, many years. We have held discos, film nights, fun days, fetes, pamper evenings, food extravaganzas and sales. We have raised money for the library, computer equipment in classes, the sound/PA system, sports kit for the sports teams, the adventure trail, pirate ship and provided treats for every child in the school at Easter and sports days.
We are always looking for parents and friends to support our committee with new ideas and some of your time. In the past our community have contributed in various ways such as donations for raffles, help with ticket sales, fund raising ideas, small amounts of time, large amounts of time, food donations, "Gift Aid" and financial gifts and support at events!
