Friends Of The School (fondly known as the FOTS team) is a dedicated team of volunteer parents who meet once a term and support the school with various fundraising events.
We are social and friendly. We like to get stuck in and most importantly raise money to support our children and this amazing little school to provide many of the extras that otherwise would be beyond the reaches of our funding.
The funds we have raised have bought a wide variety of resources that directly benefit our students – everything from repairs to the swimming pool, through to computers and sports equipment.
We’ve held Meet The Teacher evenings, movie fundraisers, quiz nights, junior and senior discos, car boot sales and student art exhibitions.
We also fundraise (and support local businesses) by selling lunches such as sushi, pizzas and Pita Pit etc.
There is no minimum commitment – everything helps and supports us. If you can turn a sausage on sausage sizzle day, coordinate a gala, sell ice blocks or raffle tickets, pick up supplies, or bake for a bake sale – WE WANT YOU!
