Friends of PVS

Welcome to the Friends of Prestwood Village Schools, the charity created to support the schools and enrich the education of the children.

As a ‘Friends’ charity, and not a PTA, we welcome the wider community to support us in fundraising and events. This means that not only are parents and carers of the children at the school welcomed and appreciated, but also grandparents, extended family and the local community leaders.

We have three main aims:

To create closer links between parents/carers and teachers.
To run fun events throughout the year that will create happy memories for the children.
To raise funds to enable the school to invest in enriching experiences for the children they would not be able to provide otherwise and support the purchase of new equipment and resources to benefit our children’s learning.

For more information or to be added to our communications and monthly meeting invites please email us at prestwoodvs@gmail.com.

We look forward to hearing from you,

FOPVS

Upcoming Events

PTA Meeting & EGM – 26 February at 8pm, Prestwood Junior School

We’d love you to join us for our next PTA meeting on Wednesday 26 February at 8pm, which will also include a short Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM).

The EGM gives us the chance to review and approve our PTA constitution, ensuring we’re set up in the best possible way to support our schools.

It will also provide another opportunity to fill a number of vital committee roles, including Communications Lead and Secretary. These roles are essential to keeping events running smoothly and helping us continue to raise funds for our children.

If you’ve ever thought about getting involved, or simply want to find out more, please come along. We’re a friendly group, and every bit of help makes a real difference.

We hope to see you there.
