Welcome to Our PTA
Being part of the PTA means you can give something back to school. From a one-off cake bake, to volunteering your time at an event or to organise one, coming to meetings or even joining the committee. Your help is always welcome, no matter how much, or how little you can do.
The meetings are informal, taking place every month during term-time, with a few mums and dads, and staff representatives. We discuss what fundraising activities we can do and how to best allocate the money raised in the interests of the children, so it's a good opportunity to have your say!

You can join for as little as £1 per week and for this, you will have the chance of winning a guaranteed weekly prize for someone within your school community. The more people that participate, the bigger this guaranteed prize becomes, and the more money raised for your school.

Thank you for your continued support!
The PTA generally meets during the 3rd week of every month during term-time – we’re always looking for new ideas, so if you’re free – we’d love to see you!
