2026 Sun Sail Fundraiser now live!
We are calling on your generous donations to help us reach our fundraising target of £5,000 to install permanent sun sails in key outdoor areas of the school, giving students essential sun (and rain!) protection during break and lunchtimes, all year round.
The school currently has very limited shaded areas, leaving students exposed to strong sun and high temperatures during the summer months, and with no rain cover during adverse weather.
Donations of any size gratefully received via our Give as You Live fundraising page
PTA Donations
Your contribution to our fundraising is always appreciated as it helps us to make a greater impact. Help our supportive community by donating whatever amount you can.
Over the years we have helped fund instruments, wellbeing initiatives, outdoor learning, and school trips, benefitting every curriculum area and every year group at the school.
Each half term we fund a number of bids that come to us from a cross-section of school departments.
We have a dedicated and secure page on Give as you Live where you can choose to make a one-off or small regular donation.
Uniform Sales
Browse the school online uniform shop here.
If there is an item you need in a size not listed, you can also email your request directly to school and the team will be able to help you further.
Let's help parents continue to keep uniform costs down, at the same time as fundraising for your school.
The school always need good quality blazers, kilts and jumpers and needs regular help with giving items in storage a fresh wash.
If you would like to help out with this, please contact us at sydenhamschpta@gmail.com

Celebrating Black History Month
In past years we had the privilege of hosting a live talk event in celebration of Black History Month.
In 2023 eight dynamic speakers from African and African-Caribbean backgrounds took to the stage to share their inspiring stories and experiences to parents, students, and carers.
Here are a few highlights from the evening: Our inspiring speakers
