Dear Parents & Teachers,
Firstly we would like to say a big thank you to the committee members,
event leaders, parents, teachers and staff of the school for their support,
enthusiasm and generosity, with both their time and donations, which saw a
fantastically fun and successful year of fund raising in
2015/2016.
Your PTA Committee
The role of the PTA is to raise money to help the School provide materials,
resources and facilities for the benefit of everyone who uses the School and
assist in building a community of parents and teachers. The PTA is made up of
a committee of parents and teachers who meet regularly to discuss fundraising
initiatives and organise events, and is supported by a team of
parent-volunteers who give their time to help out at some of these events.
Each form has Class Representatives for their year
group
What we do
For 2015 we are forecast to raise £31,486, which will go
directly to enhancing the surroundings and experiences of our children at the
school.
We have been able to fund some fantastic projects with the money raised
including:
-
Contribution towards non-fiction books for school library of £1,552
-
The new children’s kitchen with a PTA contribution of £6,167

And much more!

PTA, raising funds for the children of the school, to support their
education and school life in a variety of exciting and inspiring ways.
