Get involved!
Whether you are keen to get stuck into a committee position, or just want to help out at occasional events, the PTFA want to hear from you! We are always looking for new ideas to raise funds for the school – maybe you have a fantastic idea, or a suggestion of something you would like the PTFA to fund. Whatever the reason, your contribution will always be valued and we look forward to hearing from you! Our committee meetings are quite informal, and we nearly always have cake.

FUNDRAISING
Our School Lottery has been set up specifically to raise money and make a difference for our children!
It's a fantastic way to bring Parents, Carers, Teachers and the wider community together, in partnership with our school, and at the same time give something back. We hope to raise funds that can support and enrich the education of our children - we aim to provide extra resources for the children, improve the school environment as well as run extra curricular activities such as music, art and sport.
