Following on from the successes of last year’s and previous PTA events, we would like to revive our Parent Teachers Association and invite you to our first meeting of the year scheduled for Wednesday 4th October at 6PM in the school library.

An agenda is available at the school. If you would like to see anything added to the agenda, please let us know.
