“The thriving PTA is very supportive and helps fund improvements at the school” Ofsted 2003
What would we do without the tireless hard work of parents who arrange, run and support so many events to raise funds for our school?
Discos, parties, a Christmas Fair, a Quiz Night, a Spring Ball and the Ainsdale Show are just a few of the fun events enjoyed by children and parents alike.
This year will be even busier and your children will be able to take part in many more FUNdraising activities so watch this space! Make this the year you come and join the fun with your children, family and friends.
As a parent of a child at Ainsdale St John's you are automatically a member of the PTA. We know how busy parents are but if you are able to help in any way, your input is more than welcome.
The PTA are so grateful for the generosity of our parents and children - we honestly couldn't do it without you.
So if you are interested in becoming one of our 'Army of Helpers', contact our PTA Chair, Mrs Alison Tighe via school.
2011-2012 - The Story So Far!
January 2012 Update
We hope you all had an enjoyable and restful Christmas and New Year. As you can see from the transformation of the infant playground, planned work has been completed and I'm sure you'll agree, the place looks fantastic - and I'm sure the children agree too!!
The money raised by the events organised by the PTA in the last school year has helped fund the likes of The Razzle Dazzle Den (which I believe can be heard from afar), the Picnic Table (which now hosts many a snack time chin wag) and fun and exciting activity boards to keep the children entertained (and have an element of learning but don't tell the kids ;-)
Without each and every one of you who attend these events, and part with your hard earned cash, the PTA could not hand over these generous donations to the school - which ultimately help enrich our children's experience at school - so a massive thank you so far - but we need you to keep up the good work!!
December 2011 Update
As we move into December, it's hard to believe the PTA has already had a fantastically busy and exciting few months. We've had the wonderful 'Reception Welcome Party' which was a huge success and wonderfully exciting for all our new children and parents. We've hosted children's disco's, an 80's night for the mum's and dad's and last Friday saw yet another amazingly successful Christmas Fair - see the photographs below for proof of a brilliant evening.
