Our aims

To organise community events

We celebrate and build the vibrant community through fun events that create lasting memories for the children and bring us all together. Events such as Christmas/Summer fairs, discos and Easter bingo.

Create enjoyable experiences for the children that help them to engage positively with the school and their learning.

To raise funds for school improvement

We collect donations and hold sales and events throughout the year to raise money for the school. We work hard to raise money to fund Christmas gifts, leaver presents, a panto and many, many, many, more exciting opportunities.

How we fundraise

Like most PTFAs the majority of our funds are raised through the events that we organise and run. We respond to the children’s requests to ensure the events we are arranging are fun and exciting for the children.

We also raise money in other ways, such as donations from family and friends.
