My name is Danielle Calvert and I have a daughter who will join Seniors in 2023, having started in Nursery. I live in Cheadle Hulme, with my husband and son as well, and enjoy family walks and music concerts, as well being an avid football fan! Red one! Don’t hate me! I’m really looking forward to meeting and getting involved in the parent and friend community at AESG.
Claire is a former AESG pupil and has two daughters, and two nieces in the Prep School. After graduating from UMIST with a BSc in Business Management, Claire lived and worked in various cities and countries before returning to the area to bring up her family. As a trustee, Claire enjoys organising fundraising events that create some extra fun for the girls.
Fundraising
The PFA Lottery
The lottery is a fantastic way to bring Parents, Carers, Teachers and the wider community together, in partnership with our school, and at the same time give something back. We hope to raise funds that can enhance the educational experience of our children by purchasing equipment for the school and hosting fun activities for the girls.
It is a weekly draw with a guaranteed prize for one lucky ticket, with also the chance to win a jackpot prize of £25,000! Tickets cost £1.00 per week and the sign up is via the school lottery page which you can access by clicking below.
