Oare Primary School PTA
Connecting School, Family and Community
Oare C of E Primary PTA is a committee of parents who organise fundraisers and social events, to the benefit of the school, as well as providing opportunities for memorable community events for all. We aim to enrich the experience of our children by fundraising for equipment and experiences that go above and beyond what the school budget can provide.
We are a busy and positive group of parents and staff and together we have fundraised and undertaken some amazing facilities for the school such as:
- A Rain Garden in a derelict area of the school grounds
- Creating a STEM Classroom in the old school kitchen
- Building an outdoor shelter for the playground
- Creating our forest School and providing the equipment needed
Alongside our main projects we also pay for ad hoc items, school trips and other equipment for the children to enjoy.
Our focus for this academic year is an ‘Outdoor Classroom’ for the school field which will link to the adjoining meadow area where the children can enjoy more outside learning opportunities.
