During their annual end of year fundraiser called 'Penny Wars', the Friends of Pioneer challenged the TPA classes to gather as many pennies as possible from each class. The class that collected the most pennies would win their class amount back to go towards a class treat at the end of the year.

The total amount raised was £375.06, with class 4C emerging as the winner by collecting £73.63. However, the class collectively decided to forego their prize in light of families in need, opting instead to donate to the Thurrock Foodbank in their honour. Friends of Pioneer shopped for food items just above the winning amount and on July 22nd, they made a donation of 53.2kg of food items to Thurrock Foodbank on behalf of class 4C. A commendable decision by class 4C.
