Further Description
  • PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATIONAll parents automatically become members of the PTA when their children are enrolled at school. There is no membership fee. Parents are encouraged to support the PTA as it is of great benefit to the school. As well as giving opportunities for teachers and parents to get to know each other at informal social events, the PTA usually has educational evenings which are used to highlight different aspects of the curriculum and, of course, its fund-raising ventures provide the school with many useful pieces of equipment which, otherwise, we would not be able to afford.The aims of the PTA are to support the social life of the school, to raise funds and to promote co-operation between parents and staff. The current committee comprises 13 parents and two teachers. Thanks to the tremendous support we receive from the pupils, parents and staff the PTA has contributed a great deal to the school, hosting large and small events throughout the year which are greatly enjoyed by the school and the wider village community.2006 CalendarDisco (P5-P7) Wednesday 8 FebruaryBeetle Drive Friday 5 MaySummer Fair Saturday 27 MayCoffee morning Date in September tbcHalloween Party (P1-P3) Friday 27 OctoberChristmas Market Friday 24 NovemberEducational evening Date tbcPTA funds are used to benefit all the children and we aim to cover a wide range of interests.
