The Russell School PTA is the Parents and Teachers Association, a registered charity which organises both social and fundraising events at The Russell School.
Our main focus is to raise funds for the school to purchase equipment or facilities that it could otherwise not afford. Over the last few years we have funded an amazing custom-built tree fort, new playground toys and play equipment for Key Stage 2, alongside smaller projects such as contributing to special weeks in school, such as Science Week and the Artist in Residence.
The PTA’s main fundraising events are the Christmas Fair and the Summer Family Fun Day. We also have other great events throughout the school year, such as themed discos for the children, parents’ social evenings and the Welcome Back Event. The PTA also provides refreshments at school events such as Sports Day.
The school greatly recognises parents' contributions to the PTA, from helping in the classroom, baking cakes or donating something to the tombola. Without this help, we would find it more challenging to meet the needs of our school community and we thank you for your support.
What are we currently working towards?
Our next big project is to raise money to further develop the remaining play spaces around our new building.
A huge thank you!
Every donation we receive helps make our school even better and enriches the experience of all our pupils.
We recognize that not every family can donate, but for those who can a donation of £1 or £2 per day per child has the power to make a huge difference.
