Local schools
St. Peter's church actively supports our local schools, not only through prayer but also by providing governors and volunteers. Assemblies are taken regularly, and school groups visit St. Peter's to learn about the church or to hold carol services.

The Dunchurch & Thurlaston Educational Foundation
Registered charity number: 528738
The Foundation was set up in 1967. It can make grants for educational or training purposes to young persons who have not attained the age of 25 years and who reside, or whose parents reside, in the parishes of Dunchurch and Thurlaston and who in the opinion of the Governors are in need of financial assistance.
​
It can also make grants to voluntary organisations which provide educational or certain other benefits for such young persons. In addition the Foundation can help the Dunchurch Infant and Junior Schools with benefits which would not normally be provided by the Local Educational Authority.
​
The income of the Foundation is fairly modest about £2,500. To be considered for a grant please contact the Clerk to the Governors, Fiona Fitzsimmons tel: 07767 142770
