Parents Association
The Parent A.G.M. is held in October/November. Parents are encouraged to participate fully in school life and school events. Parents are elected to the Parents Association at this meeting.
There are two parent representatives elected for each class group. These will be ‘link’ parents for that particular class.
Our school has a very active and supportive Parents Association.
The Parents Association organises a variety of fundraising events to provide resources for teaching and learning.
Guest speakers are also arranged for the A.G.M in Term 1.
Fundraising events have helped to purchase
- iPads for S.E.N. classes
- PM+ reading Scheme
- P.E. Equipment
