All parents are warmly invited to participate actively in the PTA, whether it's serving on the committee, planning activities or helping out at events. It is always great to have fresh ideas of what else we could be doing, so if you have any fundraising ideas please do get in touch.

Being part of the PTA is a rewarding and fun way to contribute to, and be involved in, the School community. It gives you the opportunity to meet parents, to work as a team and to have the satisfaction of a child’s smile at the completion of successful events. We are ordinary parents and teachers who get together to do extraordinary things for the benefit of the children.

Here’s an overview of our achievements over the last few years and our goals for the future.

The Playground:

The PTA and school staff are working to identify one key major project for the school that PTA fundraising will benefit. We will share information soon about this!

Forest School, Sports & Play Equipment:

Supporting Forest School, sports activities, and play at school by funding repairs, and buying special clothing and play equipment. 

Wow Days:

Supporting each year group with a donation towards a 'wow day' 

Enriching Education:

Supporting the school by funding high quality books for every year group plus books for all children at Christmas.
