10 reasons to support Mangotsfield Primary School PTA. This year introduces a lot of new committee members and we are really going to need people to help and support at events throughout the academic year. Here are 10 reasons to support events and enhance your child's experience at Mangotsfield Primary School.
1. The funds it raises are vital to the success of the school.
• Schools are becoming more and more dependent on their funds. All reception book bags are funded annually through the PTA. Our PTA were also able to contribute a number of computer towards the new IT suit.
2. When you can spare time then let us know!
• There are a variety of small ways you can help: setting up and cleaning up at events, help throughout the events, sourcing materials… so many ways. Giving up just a small amount of your time to help the Committee will be invaluable.
• You don’t have to attend Committee meetings – just read the school weekly update and keep an eye on our page for ways you can support.
3. You’ll feel more connected
• Knowledge of events, have your say or make new fundraising suggestions – supporting teachers and staff too.
4. You’ll be part of a great network
• You will be part of a network of people who all share a common goal of improving the school for all of our children.
5. Share your skills
• By volunteering to help our team, you’ll be able to use whatever skills you have for a good cause.
6. It’s for dads, too!
• It’s important to our Committee, our school and our pupils to have dads represented on our committee too.
• Are you a dad with a skill or strength that would come in useful?
7. Be a role model for the kids.
• By playing an active part in making their education more varied you’ll show your children that their experience at school is important to you.
• Getting involved demonstrates good teamwork and community spirit.
8. What our PTA does can impact on every parent (and pupil)
• Your voice matters – Mangotsfield PTA is made up of people who represent you - so help us to do this effectively please
9. It’s fun!
• Helping to plan fun events, socials and get-togethers with other parents is enjoyable
• Come up with inventive NEW and fun ways to raise funds
• Get your whole family working together to raise money for the school...see the smiles on your child’s/children’s faces!
10. Finally…
Our children are only at school for a relatively short time. Events will be remembered fondly by our children for a lifetime. Help us continue to create lasting memories for our children....
