The Calne Foundation Cup is a special award recognising pupils at St Margaret’s Prep who have shown commitment to a charitable cause during the year.
Sponsored by the Patron of the Trust, Lady Lansdowne, aims to highlight the philanthropic efforts of our pupils and celebrate the children who have given their time and effort to give back, or raise money and awareness for a valuable cause.
As we look ahead to our Prizegiving on Friday 26 June, we are delighted to announce the nominees for the 2025/26 Calne Foundation Trust Cup
