#Alva Cares

At Alva Academy, we support our young people and their families in any way we can. #alvacares


#Alva Cares endeavours to offer anything that a family might need to allow their young people to attend school and fulfil their potential. 

We do this with the support of various local partners and the kindness of Alva Staff and Families. 


Preloved Uniform

Uniform is available to all young people to help themselves to in the School Reception.  

In the winter term, we also hold a Jacket Drive where you can donate and/or collect a warm jacket for the colder weather! Keep an eye out for dates to donate and collect. 

Donations are also always welcome and can be dropped off in our Reception.

Period Power

Period Power is a pupil led group with the goal of supplying Period Products to all young people and their families in our community. 

Products are available in classrooms, bathrooms and communcal areas all over the school - have a look at our map below to see exactly where you can take what you need for you and your family (red dots = products available) 

We are developing our strategy to educate and share information about menstruation as well as supply products to anyone who might need them. 

Please see the Period Power Team, Miss Mitchell (Social Subjects) or Miss Abernethy (PE/Head of House) to hear more about how you can get involved.
