PTFA
Chellaston Junior School Parent, Teacher and Friend Association
Chellaston Junior School Parent, Teacher and Friend Association (PTFA) is a charity and is on the Register of Charities with the Registered Charity Number 1175655.
Our PTFA has only been in existence since 2010. Even so, we have already raised thousands of pounds, which have been spent on equipment and resources to enhance both our children’s education experience, and the school’s facilities. Our PTFA is about much more than simply fundraising. The PTFA exists to provide closer links between home and school and it is an excellent way to bring staff, parents and friends together socially, in support of the school, working towards a common goal. It is fun too – just ask any of the Committee members or PTFA helpers. Obviously, as in any organisation, we have experienced some challenges but with the continued support of parents and staff, our PTFA has succeeded in its efforts. All parents and members of the school community are encouraged to get involved, even if they only have a small amount of time available. All families are automatically members of the Chellaston Junior School PTFA when their child joins our school.
Our PTFA Committee meet on a regular basis, usually once or twice a term, more frequently if necessary when we are planning larger events.
