Supporting the school
The PTFA exists as the social and fund-raising arm of the school's activities.
We organise different social events throughout the year, trying to involve as many children and parents as possible in events such as fetes, feature evenings, sporting events etc.
We are a group of volunteers, parents looking to be innovative and find new ways to support the children and the school.
In the last year, there have been a number of significant purchases, most recent being the blue minibus and the new cricket facilities on the Sports Field.
Previously, we have also purchased items such as:
-
The full refurbishment of the Pavilion on the Sports Field
-
The new play area in the Junior School playground
-
New football kits
-
A folding climbing frame, digital cameras, televisions and a portable CD player
Additionally, we contributed towards the computerisation of the library and supported the setting up of a cookery club, which proves to be very popular!
Our current project is to secure a new Laser cutter in the Technical Department.
Our aim is to forge closer links between parents and school to enhance the supportive environment in which the children can thrive. This is especially important for new families, trying to integrate themselves into the school community. Hence many of our functions are social: In other words, we try and plan to have a good time!
A great way to be more involved in the life of the school is to help with the work of the PTFA. There are a number of ways you can do this, with varying degrees of commitment to suit your circumstances. Please click here to fill in the form to show your interest.
