A campaign to raise £11,000 towards a new technology suite and entrance area at Lawford Primary School has achieved its target in under three months.
The brickometer set up to show how the fund was growing has reached the topmost part of the wall in just a few weeks.
Now the two projects are expected to go ahead at the Church of England primary school during the summer holidays.
The 200-pupil school was among those awarded a Government grant for voluntary-aided schools and the money was earmarked for a larger information, communications and technology suite along with a new office and entrance to the Long Road building.
The school had to raise a percentage of the costs and launched a buy-a-brick initiative.
"Thanks to the generosity of parents, governors, St Mary's Church and the local community the brickometer has reached the top," said headteacher Linda Leveridge.
