How does the PTA benefit the school?
How does the PTA benefit the school?
The Friends of Booker Hill PTA plays a vital role in enriching school life and supporting every child’s learning experience. Working in partnership with staff, parents and the wider community, we help create opportunities, provide resources and bring our school family together.
What We Do
• Fundraising for Additional Resources
We raise money throughout the year to provide the extras that make a big difference - from rental of new iPads for the pupils and support of the Forest School provision, to subsidising theatrical productions and helping with playground improvements.
• Supporting Enrichment and School Experiences
Our PTA funds and organises events, workshops and activities that enhance life beyond the classroom, helping children discover new interests, gain confidence and enjoy memorable experiences.
• Building a Strong School Community
We run a number of events and social activities that bring parents, carers, pupils and staff together. These events create a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and help strengthen the school community.
• Volunteering and Practical Help
PTA volunteers support school projects and events throughout the year. Whether helping at discos, assisting during school performances, or lending a hand at fundraising events, our volunteers provide invaluable extra support.
Why It Matters
Everything we do is aimed at giving Booker Hill pupils the best possible school experience. With the support of our community, we are able to offer more opportunities, better resources and a stronger, more connected school environment for every child.
Every Parent is Welcome
All parents and carers can become a member of the PTA. Whether you can volunteer occasionally, attend events, or simply share ideas, every contribution helps - and together we make a real difference for our children.
We aim to survey the community yearly to collect feedback on which areas you would like funding to be focussed on.
