PTA and supporting Fairfield

All parents are automatically members of the PTA whilst their child is a pupil at Fairfield Infant School.

We hope to hold events and fundraising schemes during the year to support the school, details of which will be posted on this website and sent home with your child.

The PTA makes a significant contribution towards the life of the school; please come along and support the PTA – it is great fun!

Last year, the PTA helped to fund our brand new exciting activity trail which is a great addition for our children.

Interested in the PTA? We are always looking for helpers to join us on the committee. Only a few informal meetings during the year, a great way to get involved in your child's school, raise money and make new friends!

Many thanks

PTA Strawberry Fayre - Saturday 17th June 2023 from 1pm until 4pm

WE NEED YOU!

Plans are moving forward quickly for this year’s Strawberry Fayre on Saturday 17th June, and we are on the lookout for volunteers to help with various activities at the Fayre. We really do welcome any offers of help, however big or small, and would be delighted to hear from you.

If you are able to help out at this important fundraiser for the school, please let us know how and when, by completing the Parentmail form sent out today, letting us know if you are free to help and let us know if there are any particular skills you have or stalls you’d like to volunteer on.

We will then get back to you about how we’d like you to help. The more people we have to help, the more stands we’ll be able to have, and so the more money we will make......…

We are really grateful to everyone who has already volunteered and registered their interest so far!
