The Friends of Canary Wharf Primary, East Ferry is a vital part of our school community, bringing together parents, carers, staff and families to enrich the experiences and opportunities available to every child.
A community that brings learning to life
Rooted in a shared commitment to our children’s education and wellbeing, the Friends help to strengthen the partnership between home and school and ensure that our community is active, connected and inclusive.
Enhancing opportunity and experience
Through fundraising, volunteering and the organisation of events, the Friends play a key role in enhancing the wider school experience. Their work directly supports a range of opportunities for pupils, including educational visits, enrichment activities, performances and special events that help bring learning to life.
These experiences contribute significantly to pupils’ enjoyment of school, their cultural capital and their personal development.
Building community and belonging

Events such as fairs, movie nights, seasonal celebrations and social activities provide opportunities for families to come together, strengthen relationships and share in the life of the school.
This sense of community is a real strength of Canary Wharf Primary, East Ferry and is deeply valued by pupils, families and staff alike.
