£30,000 and counting - message from PTFA Chair

The PTFA has a dual purpose.  Firstly, it's to bring together our parent/carer community.  Secondly it's the need to raise funds for Fielding Primary School for extracurricular activities.  The previous academic year was tough when 60% of physical events were cancelled due to Covid, however 2020/2021 proved to be even more challenging when 95% of our face-to-face events could not go ahead. 

 

However, thanks to a team of wonderful volunteers across the school, the PTFA still managed to raise over £30,000.  Aside from the fact that this is an incredible achievement based on the year we have had, it has ensured we can commit to funding certain activities around the kitchen garden and library services.  

 

As chair of the PTFA, I have been incredibly humbled by the generosity and commitment from parents.  It's been another hard year for many families - including my own -  but parents across the school have pulled out stops to ensure the experience our children get at Fielding Primary School is maintained. We have done things that we would have never imagined - including Reindeer/Chicken Poop Bingo, online Pumpkin decorating, online Cheese & Wine events, online Biscuit Decorating amongst others. We have pivoted events to become online activities and even managed to become finalists in the PTA Fundraising Achievement Awards for our dynamic efforts in fundraising. 

 

The PTFA is run by volunteers - so thank you to them for help in our achievements. We'd also like to thank any Y6 parents who are leaving us this week. Thank you for being amazing supporters and your involvement! You have helped to set a legacy.  

 

If you are keen to get involved in the PTFA then we have several roles that will need filling in September including our Events Team, Marketing Communications, Vice Chair (email fieldingPTFA@gmail.com)
