Parents’ Association

Welcome to The Parents' Association page. You will find answers to Frequently Asked Questions.

What is the Parents' Association?
The Parents' Association is a voluntary organisation comprising of parents and carers of children at the school which aims to fundraise and enhance their school life.
 
How does it fund raise?
The Parents' Association organises the Christmas and Summer Fairs, termly cake sales and other occasional events in order to raise funds and bring children, parents and staff together within the school environment. 
 
What are funds spent on?
The Parents’ Association works in partnership with the school to provide opportunities to enhance our children's school experience with additional activities and entertainment. For example, for a number of years it has funded a visiting pantomime, subsidised school trips to keep the cost low for all parents, provided ice pops for sports day and a Christmas book gift from Santa. The donations to school are not simply financial and often involve a hands on approach to activities! Members of the Parents' Association have been known to help out Santa Claus, serve up 400 pancakes, put on a street party and help judge the Easter Bonnet Parade. It is rewarding to be a part of creating these events and happy memories for the children.Funds can also be spent on improving the school environment as identified by the headteacher of the school.
Who can join the Parents' Association?

• attending events
• making a suggestion or giving feedback
