Reading School’s Giving Day in March 2025 was its inaugural fundraising marathon, held over 36 hours (26 – 27 March) as part of the School’s “Beyond 900” campaign to mark its 900th Anniversary. Students took on a series of exciting sponsored challenges to kickstart a fundraising campaign to provide enhanced sports, arts, drama and Sixth‑Form facilities, as well as community outreach programmes with local primary schools. With the support of the whole-school community and beyond, £180,000 was raised. 

"We are blessed to be a part of such an amazing institution that shapes boys into outstanding men. Thank you for your dedication and commitment to excellence in education. We pray that you continue to thrive and inspire for another 900 years." Year 8 Parent
