Friends Of School
Welcome to Friends of School! We are a very friendly, active and supportive group of parents, staff, friends and other family members who organise numerous events - social, fundraising and educational - during the school year, including the "Big 3" (Christmas Bazaar, Fireworks and the Summer Fete). Obviously our main aim is to raise much-needed funds for our school and we try to do this by organising family-orientated events so that everyone can join in and have fun as well! Over the past 7 years, over £74,000 has been raised and used to enhance the resources/opportunities offered to our children.
