Running

A warm welcome to parents, caregivers and friends of Kildwick school

My name is Gemma Harling and I am the current chair of the PTA. I have a daughter who is in Eagles (Year 6) and a younger son who is in Swallows (Year 1).

Our PTA is about much more than simply fundraising.  The PTA exists to provide closer links between home and school and it is an excellent way to bring staff and parents together socially in support of the school.  

How can I help? There are so many ways you can help here are some examples

  • Sell raffle tickets
  • Donate raffle prizes
  • Chaperone the school discos
  • Entertain at the school discos
  • Run one of the stalls at our summer/Christmas fair for an hour
  • Help in preparation of the fairs
  • Build us a game for the school fair
  • Prepare food
  • Run errands

Who can help? Although it is called the Parent Teacher Association, we are lucky to have involvement from not only parents (both mums and dads) but grandparents and friends which include parents who have stayed on to help even when their children have grown.

I can’t attend meetings can I still help? Absolutely. We have held meeting via zoom for those unable to attend the meetings but would like to take part. You will also receive notes from the meetings to keep you informed alongside our whatsapp and facebook group.

If you would like more information or would like to join us please feel free to approach me in the playground, contact us through our Facebook page, email us [email protected] or text me on 07792845885.
