What makes this possible is the generosity of parents and the wider school community when they participate in events organised by the Parent Council such as\u00a0\u00a0the Christmas Fayre. The money raised is used by the school to fund a range of activities and items including:\u00a0\u00a0 IT equipment and outdoor learning. But it\u2019s not just about raising money, the Parent Council offers parents the opportunity to have an input into the discussion about important issues affecting the school and enables parents to get involved across a range of activities. For more information about how the Parent Council supports the school,\u00a0you can visit their Facebook page\u00a0or contact the office bearers via the school office.<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">Chairperson: Joanna Byrne<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">Vice Chairperson : TBC<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">Secretary: Charlene Causon<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">Treasurer: Jackie Wright<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><strong>Minutes of PTA Meetings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/parents-2\/pta\/pta-meeting-sept-22\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3496\">PTA meeting sept 22<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/parents-2\/pta\/pta-5-10-22\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3495\">PTA 5.10.22<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/parents-2\/pta\/pta-1-2-23-1\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3494\">PTA 1.2.23 (1)<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/parents-2\/pta\/pta-2-3-23-1\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3493\">PTA 2.3.23 (1)<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/parents-2\/pta\/pta-meeting-6-9-23-rl\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3568\">PTA Meeting 6.9.23 RL<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every parent automatically becomes a member of the Parent Forum when their child starts school, enabling any parent to get involved with school life in whatever way they can, whether it is helping out on a trip or disco, participating in parent curriculum workshops, supporting an extra-curricular sports activity, sharing work place knowledge with a &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/parents-2\/pta\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">PTA<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4271,"featured_media":0,"parent":557,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1438","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4271"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1438"}],"version-history":[{"count":36,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1438\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3570,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1438\/revisions\/3570"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/re\/thorn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
