Parents

We welcome the support and involvement of our parents and families in the schools. We encourage parents to take an active part in their daughter's education and we welcome all your feedback and comments.

Families are regularly invited to events, concerts, performances and sporting events at the College and there are also regular social events for parents organised by the school and amongst the parents.

We now have an active tennis group for mothers on Wednesday mornings in the Summer Term and there are more activities planned.

Parents' Fundraising Committee

The Parents' Fundraising Committee is made up of a dynamic and committed group of parents who organise social events and help raise extra funds for the school's development. Funds raised are used to benefit all  girls by providing a range of facilities, equipment and opportunities, which will enrich the girls' education.

The Parents' Fundraising Committee (PFRC), organise events across the year which aim to be fun and sociable as well as raising funds for the school and our annual nominated charity.  The events are very well attended and provide an opportunity to meet other parents and teachers socially and to feel more involved with the school.

Most recent fund raising projects have allowed further investment in ICT facilities, sound equipment, outdoor pursuits equipment, library resources, design technology machinery and a Yamaha grand piano.

Planned events for 2010/11 include:

Sunday 19 September Family Fun Day: 12noon - 4.00pm
Saturday 20 November Christmas Market: 12noon - 3.00pm
Thursday 31 March Fashion Evening (for girls & parents)
