The Charity

The project was spearheaded by the students of the three Wakefield Grammar Schools for the local community, with its royalties going directly to Variety to raise much-needed funds for equipment for local vulnerable children. Lyrics including ‘I am the future, I am the stars’ and ‘We are the voice that fights for the dream’ were inspired by students’ commitment to help all children reach their goals.

My daughter absolutely loves everything about the school. Older girls are great role models. Class sizes are quite small and teachers have a lot more time to spend 1-to-1 with the girls.
