We have a strong, enthusiastic and passionate PTFA, who organise events which raise much needed funds to support our children in school.
The most recent events have been the St Mary's Summer Soiree - a fabulous evening event, where families and staff joined together in the playground and enjoyed a range of stalls, games, soak the teacher, children singing and summer themed fun!! - the Soiree raised over £1450 to spend on the children in school. It was inspired by last year's Summer Soiree and the Festive Soiree at Christmas.
Discos, raffles, tombolas and competitions are very popular too! All the money raised, goes straight to the children in school - helping to subsidise coaches for trips, paying for authors and poets to visit school and buying resources.
The PTFA have funded a Book Club Bag, with a class teddy and book, for every class and are going to buy library boxes for the playground for both children and adults to enjoy.
We couldn't manage without this dedicated team of volunteers - if you have any spare time, or just want to help at events - please let us know - we always welcome new members!
