FOCUS – Our PTA


FOCUS – Our PTA

FOCUS stands for ‘Friends of Cupernham Infant School’, the school’s Parent Teacher Association (PTA)

The PTA is run by a committee of volunteers voted in by the members (that’s you), and while they have responsibility for managing the association, the more members that take an active role, the better. And, as a parent or guardian of a child at the school, or member of the school staffing, you are all automatically members of FOCUS.

The main function of FOCUS is to support the school by raising as much money as we can to enhance, enrich and improve learning experiences for the children. We also provide those ‘little extras’ that make school memorable, such as in-school Christmas Parties with a visit from the Big Man himself.

We also exist to bring the communities of school and home closer together through getting together socially, meeting new people and have fun!

Our AGM is held late September/early October, and everyone is always welcome. We then hold a committee meeting at least once a term. If you wish to find out more, please contact the PTA via E-mail focus.cupernham@yahoo.com

We use a PTA events website to communicate and sell all our fundraising event tickets and our second-hand uniform.
