PUPILS at Eden Girls’ School in Coventry are on the road to success after receiving an £8,000 donation to take them to extracurricular activities, sporting events and educational trips.

The school has bought a new minibus which will make excursions more affordable and accessible to all students, thanks to the donation from housebuilder Orbit.

Shazia Akram, Principal at Eden Girls’ School, said: “This contribution will have a lasting impact on our students, providing them with greater access to educational trips, extra curricular activities and community events.

“It’s partnerships like these that strengthen the connection between our school and the wider community, ensuring our students have every opportunity to learn, grow and thrive beyond the classroom.




“On behalf of the entire school, thank you for investing in the future of our students.”

Place area lead for Orbit, Emily Brunsdon, said: “We hope that the minibus will mean that young people can explore beyond the classroom and access a wide range of enriching experiences and opportunities that will make a lasting impact on the students as well as the wider community.”
