St Mark's PTA
“The PTA are the heart of the school community, their special touches and events really make it a warm and friendly place to be.” Kim, St Mark's parent
Welcome to St Mark's PTA!
We are a registered charity that serves to advance the education
of the pupils of St Mark's.
If and when you are ready to find out what goes on “behind the scenes” of the fairs, treat stalls, events, and meetings, you will receive a warm welcome from those who are currently involved.
Whether you have 15 minutes at the end of the school day to sell ice pops in the playground, an evening or two to brainstorm ideas, a few hours to volunteer at an event, or any and all things in between – you will be welcomed with open arms! You don’t have to do anything official to be a member of the PTA; just being a parent or carer of a child at the school, or a member of staff, is enough!
Help us to raise £8000 to buy new laptops that will enhance the ICT offering for children throughout the school from EYFS to Year 6.
Wherever you are in your school journey, there is a role for you in the PTA if you want one – big or small, regular or sporadic. Here are a few good ways to start:
Join the PTA chat on WhatsApp (or scan the QR code) and see what’s going on. It won’t be long before someone is posting information about our next event or meeting. Make sure to say hello!
Follow us on Facebook, and be sure to like and share the posts - every little bit of engagement helps spread the word and get support from our local community.
Email us and let us know if your workplace can support us with match-funding, raffle prizes, or event sponsorship.
“As well as the money raised, the families and children enjoy the school events that are run by the PTA. It brings a sense of community to the school.” Laura, St Mark's parent
Information about events filters down to parents via this page, Parentmail, the Facebook page, posters on the boards around the school, and class WhatsApp groups. It's really hard to miss what's going on!
Here are some dates for the diary:
