Save Blockhouse Bay Primary's School Pool

Given by 26 generous donors in around 6 months

Our school pool is in need of a very expensive repair - Help us raise the funds to fix it!

Blockhouse Bay, Auckland

Our school pool is in need of a very expensive upgrade and the Ministry of Education will not help us with this. The pool is used by all our students during school time to build water confidence and learn to swim. Families also use the pool after hours and in the holidays for their enjoyment. It is a wonderful resource for our community.

We have already raised $55,000 towards the repair and will continue to fundraise through discos, movie nights and a Math-a-thon later this year.

About us

We are a group of parents raising funds to support the students, on behalf of the school

Use of funds

To refurbish the pool so that it can be used by the school and school community for the next 15 years at least!
