Our Rotakids are M.A.D (Making A Difference). Our Rotakids group, made up of pupils from years 5 and 6, was established in April 2021 with David and Tony from the Brighouse Rotary Club. The aim of the club is to build a sense of community and charity within our school, and since its inception, the Rotakids have supported a number of charities:
and through bun sales, paper plane competitions, badge sales, merchandise sales, art exhibitions and sponsored walks have raised well over £3000 for their chosen charities.
As well as their charity activities, they have planted flowers and bulbs on our grounds, made Christmas cards for the elderly residents of Sandholme Fold and packed ‘Brave Boxes’ for refugee children who seek support from the Calderdale Valley of Sanctuary.
The Rotakids has become a well-established group who enjoy doing good things to support others and learn about how their help (no matter how small) can make a difference.

Our amazing Rotakids marked the end of a successful fundraising year with a special presentation lunch at Lightcliffe Golf Club. Seated among the Rotarians, they enjoyed a buffet lunch, shared highlights of their work, and performed their uplifting Make A Difference song.
The atmosphere was warm and cheerful, with Rotarians praising the confidence and enthusiasm of our pupils. A big thank you to David and Tony for their weekly leadership and for inspiring our young people to serve with heart and commitment.
