St Bernadette Catholic Primary School
Friends of St. Bernadette
2020/21 AGM Presentation
Welcome to the Friends section of our website.
The Friends of St Bernadette
is the PTA (Parent-Teacher Association) for
St. Bernadette Catholic Primary School.
We are a group of parents, carers and staff who work together to provide extra educational and fun opportunities for all the pupils at our school.
By deciding to send your child or children to our school every parent/carer is automatically a member of the Friends.
We raise funds by organising a variety of events throughout the year.
With these funds we provide additional resources and support to the school, improving the environment in which our children are educated, these would not otherwise be possible. Through our charity status we also spend a lot of time applying for grants.
In 2019-2020 The Friends funded:
- 30 Chromebooks + storage
- CGP books for all children during lockdown
- Yr 3 Singing project
- Yr 4 Theater trip (postponed to next year due to lockdown)
- Planters funded partly through a grant from Learning through Landscapes (LtL)
- Reception outdoor play - through a grant from Heathrow community Foundation
- Caterpillar room running cost
