October 2018

The annual quiz night took place on Friday 9th October.  Well done to the infant staff team who won best dressed table, pass the pound round and the overall quiz itself!  The event raised around £450 and was a fun evening for all involved.

September 2018

The new school minibus – part funded by the PTA has arrived.  Thanks to Carpet Corner for their sponsorship of the bus.

June 2018

The PTA 2018 camp-over was a magnificent event and has raised £3000!  Thank you to everyone that came and supported the event.  We are already looking forward to next year!

December 2017

The fair and the raffle raised a fantastic £1850 for PTA funds: the best receipts for a Christmas Fair for many years. Thank you!  Thank you to everyone involved.   One of the projects we are working on is development of the school grounds and ‘Friends of Farfield’ funds will support this.

June 2016

The school camp-over resulted in a profit for the PTA of just over £2500, including a donation of £60 to the Little Princess Trust.

Thank you to everyone who supported this wonderful event.

Previous fundraising has enabled us to recently purchase two defibrilators – one for each building – and these will be positioned in each foyer area. Hopefully, we will never need to use them but if we do, they could save a life.
