Friends of Vicarage Park
Welcome to the Friends of the School page.
We are a registered charity, run by a small committee of parents and carers, with the aim of raising additional funds for the school to be put towards the educational needs of the children of Vicarage Park.
We are always looking for extra support, as we are a small team. This can be in the form of baking, the donation of tombola prizes, or help at each of the events. The more support and help we have in the running and in attendance at our fundraisers, the more money we can give to school to support their educational projects. We also have a bit of fun along the way, too and it is a great way of making new friends!
Our committee:
- Michaela Hudson (Chair) Yr 6 & Yr3
- Lynsey Bagot (Vice Chair) Yr 3 & Rec
- Nina Frearson (Treasurer) Yr 6
- Stacy Hurley (Secreatary) Yr 3
- Justine Allen Yr 3
- Cathy (Monaghan) Scott Yr 6 & Yr 2
- Jo Conway Yr 5
- Penny Severn Yr 2
- Lauren Crawford Yr 1
- Kate Lund Yr 6
If you would like more information about joining the committee or helping at our events, please contact us on friendsofvicaragepark@outlook.com or speak to one of us in the playground.
Funding:
In previous years, we have helped to pay for new outdoor play equipment in both playgrounds, new reading books, school branded sports uniform (so the children look the part when representing the school), and new iPads for use in class.
Every year we provide:
- Book Bags for our new starters
- Leavers Hoodies for Year 6
- £8 per child towards their class trips / class resources
- £400 per term to support a project that benefits the whole school
This year, with your help, we are looking to fund curriculum support boxes for all year groups to enhance the children's topic work. We are also aiming to provide educational iPad Apps, Microbit Controllers and a course of exciting music lessons for year 3. Finally, we are in the process of buying a new PA system and a new tea urn for school and Friends of VP to use at our events.
Thankyou for your continued support and together we hope to have a great year of fundraising with lots of fantastic events for us all to enjoy!
