PTA
The PTA is a partnership between parents and the school, who come together to organise social activities and fundraise. Our fundraising goes towards helping pay for vital resources that enhance the children’s learning environment and their school experience.
As well as a number of smaller projects, we also select a larger project in conjunction with the school’s leadership team to work towards over the year. In the past, projects have included redeveloping the school garden with a range of outdoor resources, funding a whole school trip to the beach and purchasing books to develop the school library.
All parents are automatically a member of the PTA when their child joins the school. The varied work means there's something for everyone - it's not just about being on the committee. We hold regular meetings throughout the year which all parents are warmly invited to attend. All offers of help and new ideas are gratefully received and we look forward to receiving your input.
If you would like to contact us please do so via the school office.
