CRGSA
The CRGSA is an enthusiastic body of parents who work alongside the School to raise funds, organise social events and provide refreshments at School productions and parents’ evenings.
This is a thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile cause and one which constantly needs new members and volunteers, occasional helpers and anyone who has a particular expertise to offer.

Who can you contact? How do you become involved?

We sell most items of uniform and sports equipment (including boots) in good condition. Anything you wish to sell should be clearly marked with your son's name, tutor group and the price (or marked donated) and a stamped addressed envelope attached. If you are in doubt about the price we shall be pleased to advise you.
A record is kept of all items brought in (other than those donated) and all monies over five pounds are sent by cheque, either in the s.a.e. (if provided) or via your son. All items are kept indefinitely until sold when a commission of 25% is deducted. If you are unable to bring in items during opening hours, they may be left in Reception at any other time (clearly marked, please).
The CRGSA Shop is run by volunteers for the benefit of parents and the school. All profit goes to the CRGSA funds, which in turn purchases equipment for the school. If you have any queries or are willing to help, please contact one of us (details are given above).
