We have a wider PTA WhatsApp group where we liaise with class reps and also keep you in the loop about events coming up and the help we need to make these events a success -we would love to welcome some new parents to join this. If you would like to be part of the wider team, then please email us and we will add you.
We are still in need of organisers and supporters to help support the PTFA and our fundraising. Everything the PTFA does is to benefit our children and their school experience. Below are some of the ways you can help to PTFA:
*Could you do a trip shopping and buy supplies for our events? (using our money, not your own)
*Can you help fill sweetie bags for us in the evenings in advance of events?
*Are you great on Instagram and Facebook and be willing to update our pages before and after our events?
*Are you creative and can make posters?
*Are you happy to offer your time and help to run events where needed?
All these little things make the PTFA successful and we really need you to help us! You aren’t expected to commit a certain number of hours or days - we just need to know you’re on hand!
Please see below a round up of some our our fundraising initiatives for the last academic year. With your help we'd love to raise as much money this year.
We have a few events lined up so expect to hear from us again once dates are confirmed, but if you’d like to join please come and speak to us - the more the merrier!

DIARY DATES
BLACK & ORANGE MUFTI - Friday 25 OCTOBER
The last day of the first half term is Black & Orange mufti. The school have requested this is themed and no Halloween costumes are allowed. We are asking for £1 to be given to your class teacher, or a member of the PTFA on the day.
ELFRIDGES - FRIDAY 13 DECEMBER
Elfridges returns during the school day for the children to pick a gift for a loved one, which is then wrapped by one of our PTA elves. Tickets MUST be purchased in advance at £3 per gift. Children can purchase tickets for more than one gift if that would like to buy presents for more than one family member. Unfortunately due to the organisation of this event, we aren’t able to accommodate children on the day and only children with tickets may visit.
PANTO - Wednesday 18 December
Our Panto is back again… tickets are £5 a child, which includes a festive treat from the PTFA. Again we are hosting Chaplin's Panto at our school, and this year the children will enjoy half a day watching Jack and the Beanstalk. While the children have always thoroughly enjoyed watching the pantomime ticket sales last year meant we ran this event at a loss. We have been advised that if ticket sales are not met this year we will be unable to book for next year which would be a great shame. The PTFA have already subsidised this event to make it affordable for all, and kindly request that £5 is paid.
