Striving for excellence together

Hayesdown PTA

Our Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is known as Hayesdown PTA. We are a registered charity (1053112) This group of parents, grandparents and staff work hard to run a number of events throughout the year to raise money and provide opportunities for the school community to meet informally and socialise.

Our friendly PTA team!

We also have a ‘Hayesdown PTA’ Facebook page that we use to share news about the school and the latest PTA fundraising activities and events.. Parents and guardians find the page a helpful source of information, with reminders of school activities and deadlines, and for tracking down missing school uniform. Why not join us?

The Hayesdown PTA Committee

The Committee is always happy to welcome new members and to receive ideas to support its work.  You don’t have to be a member to attend meetings and help at events – you simply have to turn up or offer your services through a PTA member.  Many hands make light work and we can assure you of a very warm welcome!

Chair: Hayley Warren (contact hayesdownpta@gmail.com)

Vice Chair: Beth Windess

Treasurer: Christine Collins

Secretary: Nicola Sandquest

 

Events

The Committee has an annual core of tried and tested social events that are enjoyed by the community but also tries to introduce one or two new events each year.  Events are detailed in our newsletters and promoted on Dojo and our facebook page.
