Woodmansterne PTFA
Coming Up:
- ❄️ Christmas Fair - Friday 5th December ❄️
Woodmansterne school receives additional money through fundraising by the Parent, Teacher and Friends Association (PTFA). Over the past few years our fundraising events have included a disco and movie night for the children, Christmas and Summer fairs, a quiz night for parents and school staff as well as many cake and ice cream sales after school.
Each year money raised by the PTFA pays for all children in the Primary school to go on Christmas trips free of charge so no child is disadvantaged, pays for fruit given to children in years 3-6, as this is not supplied by Government funding, as well as other extras such as contributing to the Y6 Leavers Hoodies, the Yr11 prom and Library book purchases.
Without the PTFA these events/experiences would not happen.
All parents with children at the school are automatically part of the PTFA and welcome to join in with the fundraising. We are a friendly bunch who would like more parents to be involved.

Our grand total for 2024/25 is an incredible £20,000! Thanks so much to everyone who attended the events across the year, but especially to all our brilliant, indefatigable volunteers who did such a fantastic job, baking cakes, painting faces, supervising disco's or throwing paint at our colour runner's. We couldn’t do it without you - a genuine huge thank you and well done!
This year, funds will be shared and allocated across several areas of the school, including Woody Farm development, sports & recreation equipment, and library enrichments.
