Welcome to the PTFA section.
All parents are automatically members of the PTFA. Those who wish to become more involved may join the Committee. The objects of the Association are to advance the education of the pupils at the school by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school (not normally provided by the Local Education Authority) and as ancillary thereto and in furtherance of the Association may:
a) Foster more extended relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school.
b) Engage in activities which support the school and advance the education of the pupils attending it.
A copy of the PTFA Constitution, the Minutes of the latest meeting and a current list of Committee Members are on display in the entrance to the school.
