Hide AdBonnie Montgomery, the school's business manager, said children are at risk of missing out on trips and events.
She said: "This is an integral part of the school life and it is such a shame – we have worked hard to be in the unique position of being a primary school with a minibus and we have built an exciting new curriculum around it.
"We use the minibus all the time and so now, unfortunately, we are in danger of the children missing out – something we are not willing to let happen. The Year 6 residential visit will be affected now that we cannot take them in our own bus."
"We are hoping to raise much needed funds to replace this vital resources for the children. So any donations you can make towards our cause will be very much appreciated."
