 We are just a group of parents and carers who are keen to do our bit to support our children and the children in our care. We hold office for one calendar year. These days everyone leads a busy live but we enjoy the challenge set by our excellent staff to raise money for a wide range of projects and to support school events. 

 

If you feel this might be your year to get that little bit more involved then you’d be hugely welcome to join us.
Thank you for your continued financial support that goes towards enhancing school life for all the children.
We hope to have another year of fantastic fundraising with our new PTA team.
