Story

Whilst we're unable to celebrate Founder's Day in the usual fashion this year, we still hope to bring the Elizabethan community together in support of the School.

The Founder's Day Fete, organised by FQE, is the single biggest annual fundraiser to provide state-of-the-art facilities, and increased opportunities, for the benefit of the students. Thanks to previous fundraising efforts, the School now has a fabulous library, multi-purpose hall, swimming pool and a marvellous dining hall, but QE continues to have ambitious goals for the construction of outstanding new facilities, such as the current project to build a new music school.

Our objective is to raise money to fund new developments at the School, from which all students will directly benefit. The fete usually makes about £20,000 for the School and this support is needed more than ever in the current climate. Let's see how close we can get to that ambitious target!

Generations of boys have been helped by the extraordinary generosity of parents, friends, neighbours, and Old Elizabethans. Please give however much you can and leave a message of support.
