Wakefield School PTA Committee

The Wakefield School PTA Committee are a group of parents who provide an important link between the school and parents, by coordinating fundraising and social activities.  

The fundraising proceeds enable the school to purchase items from a “wish list” compiled by the school’s staff, leadership and management teams.  These items have been approved for purchase by the Board of Trustees.  Examples of some of the items the PTA has funded or contributed to for the school in the last few years are; a school Gazebo and ‘flying flags’, the sound system in the hall, the play ground, library books, literacy and numeracy resources, musical instruments and interactive whiteboards.  We find this funding of vital importance to the running of our school.

The PTA encourage family involvement in the schools social and fundraising activities. 

We welcome new members or 'Friends' of the PTA. Being a friend of the PTA means you don't have to commit to coming to meetings but you will be informed about what is going on and what we need help with.
 
The committee meets on the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 7.30pm in the school staff room.  These meeting dates are advertised in the school newsletter.
