Friends
The Friends of Park Lane School Association (UK Charity no. 1003604) is a group of parents, carers and staff who dedicate their free time and energy to help, plan, organise and run events to raise money for the school throughout the year.
All money raised goes directly to supporting children, be it providing support for vulnerable children or enriching our children's education with equipment, workshops and subsidising school trips.
Here is what was acheived last year :
- Headphones for Kindles/Chromebooks x 52 pairs -
- Kindle x 30
- Christmas gifts for each class
- Kindle Cover x 30 -
- Chromebook x 10
- Chromebook Station storage and charger
- Year 6 Pizza Lunch and goodbye presents
Some of the regular events Friends organise are:
- Christmas Bazaar
- Spring Fayre
- School Discos
- Cake Sales
- Summer Ice Cream sales
- Party Box Hire
- School Uniform Shop
All our events are organised and run by volunteer parents, carers and teachers. We rely on lots of parents getting involved helping out in whatever way they can, as well as generous corporate sponsorships or donations.
