Oare Primary School PTA
Connecting School, Family and Community
Oare C of E Primary has an active PTA, which raises funds for school projects, as well as providing opportunities for memorable community events for all.
We have two projects that we are actively fundraising for and are already making progress toward:
- A Covered Canopy area in the school playground
- Forest School Equipment
If you’d like to contribute to either of these projects, we’d really appreciate it.
Please contact the school office who’ll put you in touch with the treasurer for details.
Follow our progress and find out about our fundraising events on Facebook.

How can you get involved?
First and foremost, every parent is part of the Oare C of E Primary School PTA. You do not have to have an official role in order to be part of the PTA. The PTA committee are elected each year at the AGM in September and hold meetings every half term to plan the year’s fundraising events. All parents and carers are welcome at the PTA meetings, you do not have to be a committee member to attend.
To support our PTA, you could:-
- Volunteer your time at events such as cake sales, Sports Day, Film Nights, School Discos, School Fairs and other events. You can help at one event or ten – whatever you time you can spare is helpful! We are all parents and know that it’s hard to commit to extra activities
- Bake for or buy from our cake sales – or both!
- Join the committee
- Come along to meetings, without the commitment of becoming a committee member.
- Donate prizes to our raffles and tombola stalls.
- Sign up to Easy Fundraising – Easy Fundraising partners with over 7,000 brands who will donate part of what you spend to our School funds. You could use it to do your weekly online supermarket shop….
