This year, Seer 365's chosen charity for our Christmas party fundraiser is Friends of Sunnydown to help raise funds for Sunnydown School.

Friends of Sunnydown is a fundraising charity that supports the projects which enhance the learning experiences provided by Sunnydown School.

Sunnydown School is on a mission to provide a unique learning journey for every young man, every day so that they can develop their Resilience, Independence and Cooperation through being Encouraged, Enabled and, ultimately, Empowered. The staff at Sunnydown are collectively dedicated to this mission; they are hardworking, empathetic, willing to both learn and develop through reflective practice, and have their students’ best interests at heart in all that they do.

Sunnydown School is a specialist school catering for young men in KS3 and KS4. All students have an EHC Plan which identifies Communication and Interaction needs as a primary need, often associated with Autism. The young men who attend are academically able, with many obtaining GCSEs in English, Maths, Science and other subjects above a grade 4. Specialist support is in place for those who find learning more challenging. All of their young men are exceptionally well behaved, and engage in and are responsible for their own active learning.
