Parent Fundraising Group

The fundraising group will have a short meeting on Wednesday 5th September at 6:00pm to plan the year ahead.

Expectations:

A disco or movie night is organised each term (4 over the school year)
A Christmas Fair
Family fun night

These events bring in much needed funds to the school. They significantly reduce the cost excursions £5.00 reduction for pantomime and school trip.

They also enable the school to purchase interactive materials which enhance learning experiences.

The fundraising group urgently need new members. Without your help these events will not happen.

Useful skills –

write letters and prepare fliers
count money and maintain records
organise and book DJ for discos
purchase and organise stock for tuck

There was a good turn out of parents at “Meet The Teacher” yesterday. 85 parents attended and the response to this was very positive. All parents found the session useful, enjoyed seeing classroom and meeting ‘new’ teachers.
