2017 PTA Planned Fundraising

2017 PTA Planned Fundraising

Since November 2016 the PTA committee in consultation with the school have been planning the PTA fundraising for 2017. Below is a term by term list of the 2017 PTA Planned Fundraising.

Criteria that we took into account when determining which events we should have throughout the year:

  • Biggest return and ease of execution including time and resources invested
  • Positive outcome for children (linked to learning if possible, fun, and health and well being focus in accordance with school’s strategic aims)
  • Balance of fundraising for children and the community
  • Events spread evenly throughout the year

This year we have made a commitment to ask less from our community given that the last three years have been quite onerous on the community as well as PTA members.  It is great that we are in a position to still have some fabulous events this year without the pressure of high targets.

PTA Fundraising Project 2017 - Pool Upgrade


The Board have asked that the PTA focus our fundraising efforts on the pool upgrade so that this can be opened to the community next summer.  

The PTA will be putting together a working committee together to look into what needs to be done, steps involved within timeline, planning and costs etc.

More information to follow.

Thank you to our wonderful volunteer PTA committee and supporters who without their support, time and enthusiasm we would not be able to continue providing these fabulous PTA events.


The PTA appreciate your continued support 
to further enhance our children's learning and education.
