Like many schools we have a Parent Teacher Association which is known as ‘Friends of School’ at Heath Primary School. These are a great way for parents to get to know other families and staff whilst making a contribution to the quality of school life for all.
At Heath Primary Friends of School, we provide a great way to build the whole school community, including links with the wider society, all of which benefits the school and offers positive influences with our local area.
Fundraising is a major part of our activities and this directly contributes to the improvement of the school. We provide a willing workforce for the school holding various social events/stalls from bun sales to craft sessions and not forgetting the all important ‘DISCO’. The varied work means there’s something for everyone.
Here are just a few examples of what we have been able to purchase for the School/Pupils from the proceeds of our many fundraising events:- DEFIB, Sun Cream Dispensers, Den Making Kit, Reading Shed and many more.
We are a friendly bunch and meet roughly once a month for an update and coffee.
We are always looking for new ideas and new members to join our friendly group. Signing up doesn’t mean you have an obligation to attend every meeting and all events. Maybe you just have an idea you would like to share or are able to help at one of our events. If this is the case, please do get in touch with myself (Alison West), Mrs Wilkes or Mrs Hill. Any help you can provide would be very much appreciated, and in return you’ll receive a huge sense of satisfaction and most likely a new group of friends.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and hope to see some new faces.
