At the heart of our school community is a dedicated group of parents, carers, staff, and volunteers known as Friends of School. Their mission is simple but incredibly important: to enrich school life for every child by raising funds, organising events, and strengthening the bond between families and the school.

Who Are the Friends of School?

Friends of School is a voluntary organisation made up of people who care deeply about creating the best possible environment for our pupils. Whether they’re planning a fundraising event, helping at school fairs, or supporting classroom activities, their contribution makes a real difference.

Current trustees:

Chair – Rosie Edgerley

Secretary – Lucy Rees

Treasurer – Laura Linnell

What do we do?

Throughout the year we run a variety of fun and engaging activities, such as:

• Seasonal events
• Discos
• Cake sales and raffles
• Community events

These events not only raise valuable funds but also bring families together, helping to build a warm and connected school community.

💡 How our support helps

Money raised by Friends of School goes directly back into improving school life. Recent contributions have helped fund:

• School trips
• Prizes
• Seasonal events (Valentines Day, Easter, Christmas, Mother's / Father's Day)
• Keep an eye out for future projects!

Every penny raised helps create opportunities that benefit our children.

🙌 How You Can Get Involved

Friends of School is always happy to welcome new members. Whether you can spare an hour at an event, help with planning, or simply share ideas, your support is appreciated.

Getting involved is a great way to meet other families, support the school, and make a positive impact on your child’s experience.
