Friends of Rose Green Junior School
All staff and parents at our school are automatic members of our 'Friends of Rose Green Junior School' (Parents and Teacher's Association).
The Events Team works hard throughout the year to organise and run a range of fundraising and social events.
The main 'Friends of Rose Green Junior School' events during the year are the Christmas and Summer Fairs. The money raised by the Events Team is put straight back in to the school and is used for a range of projects and activities. The Events Team subsidise many trips and activities including the Year 6 residential, first aid workshops, contributions towards Rainbow Theatre and other visitors which support our curriculum as well as helping to continually upgrade and enhance our range of reading books. In this way, parents receive an immediate payback from their support at fund raising events. In addition, money raised is used for larger projects that benefit our children. In the past, money raised has been used to purchase maths resources for use in the classroom as well as replacing and upgrading the PCs in the ICT suite on a rolling programme. More recently, money raised has helped to purchase our new outdoor play gym equipment and playground resources which builds on a previous outdoor project which includes contributing over £20,000 to the outdoor Adventure Trail and Tyre play that children use at break and lunchtime.
We appreciate that not everyone can always commit to attending Event Team meetings, however you can support the Friends of Rose Green Junior School team in a variety of ways:
- Attend Events Team meetings. There are normally about 2 or 3 meetings per term, which are held during the school day at the school.
- Help run a stall at a fundraising event.
- Promote fundraising events in the wider community.
- Create links with a business who may be able to support.
- Attend fundraising events and bring family and friends.
If you are able to offer your support in any of the above ways then please contact the school office.
