What the PTA Means to Our School

Because our PTA involves the whole school community we thought you would like to know what others think about our PTA.

From the Governing Body

The support the PTA gives the Governing Body, helps us to ensure that the buildings are in good order and that we have such excellent and varied resources. The PTA is an essential part of our school. All parents and carers are members and everyone’s contribution is highly valued. The work of the PTA underpins the whole school. Financial support enables us to create a richer learning environment for our children. Numerous curriculum resources have been provided which children throughout the school are able to enjoy. The wide variety of social functions, allow us all to get to know one another in a more relaxed setting. The children see their parents and the school staff working together for their benefit. They appreciate this united effort and it adds to their feeling of security. Our school would not be the lively and welcoming learning environment it is without the enthusiasm, commitment and hard work of our PTA. All of us in school are very grateful to them.

Our Head teacher, Mr Tom Fanning

“PTA activities not only provide us with exciting social events, but also raise funds which help to give the children such an enjoyable education, through new resources. The PTAs contribution to the school community provides a collective of professional skills, innovation and new ideas, creativity and collaborative working practices.

Our PTA has achieved so much, and I look forward to continuing this valuable partnership in the coming years.
