Raising funds for Read St John's school
Enriching every child's future
Our goal is to raise funds to provide additional resources, opportunities and experiences that benefit all children at Read School to help them thrive.
School Lottery
Join our school lottery for a chance to win the national £25,000 jackpot!
There’s also one guaranteed winner in our school every week, the prize money depends on the amount of ticket sales at our school, so the more tickets we sell, the bigger the weekly prize fund.
From just £1 per week. Buy multiple tickets for more chances to win!
The lottery is operated and administered by Your School Lottery.
Where Your Money Goes
The money from ticket sales is split so that Read St. John's School directly receives 40% of ticket sales. 25% is allocated as prize funds for parents and the remaining 35% is for the national jackpot prize and administration costs.
