PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT IN SCHOOL LIFE

Our school has a very energetic and active PTA.  A committee is elected each Autumn with a representative from each class, the school Governors, teaching staff and Headteacher.  A Chairperson is elected from the Committee.  The PTA organise a varied and changing programme of events. Funds raised in this way are used to buy books for use across the curriculum, equipment of all types, computers and other IT equipment and a variety of other resources which the children need. The PTA are currently involved in developing the school’s grounds, something we are all very excited about.

 

Parents are always welcome to help in school in a variety of ways.  Many parents help class teachers on a regular basis, whether doing routine time consuming practical tasks or providing quality individual time with children.  Parents often listen to children read, help individuals or groups with practical activities, supervise dressing and drying at swimming sessions, help with Bikewise training or assist in the library.

 

Any parent able to make a regular time commitment to school is very welcome.  We can involve you in a variety of useful tasks in and around the classrooms.  If you are interested please call in to see the Headteacher.  School is keen to provide opportunities for volunteer helpers and the school to come closer together in the interests of supporting our children effectively
