Lakeside Community Hub

Lakeside Community Hub is a community project on-site at Lakeside Primary Academy. The Hub can be used outside of school hours and will serve the local community as a base to host meetings and community events.

Chris Wroot (Stronger Communities Officer) will be based at the Hub on a regular basis and will be providing a variety of support. The aim of the team is to build strong, active, inclusive and resilient communities across the whole of Doncaster, effectively building on and using their strengths and assets to work in partnership to improve their quality of life and well-being, to make their neighbourhoods safe and supportive and able to tackle the issues that matter to you.

Social Supermarket

As part of our commitment to become more Eco Friendly we have been holding a weekly Social Supermarket, which has proved very popular. The Social Supermarket runs every Wednesday. You are invited to bring a cool bag to school and provide a £2 donation via Parent Pay. The produce available will vary each week, with everything from fruit, vegetables, bread, bakery products and confectionery.

All of the food on offer is food which has been identified as surplus by local supermarkets, and helps to reduce food waste.
