Home School Association (HSA)
The Home School Association (HSA) is a team of volunteer parents, carers and staff who work together to raise funds that enhance the school experience for all children. Our aim is to provide additional resources and opportunities that fall outside the standard school budget, whilst always ensuring the children are at the heart of everything we do.
Our motto is "putting the fun into fundraising", and we take it seriously! Each year, we organise a wide range of events that bring our school community together, including:
-
Children’s school discos
-
Our spectacular annual Fireworks Night
-
The Christmas Fair
-
A Summer Party for all of our families and staff
-
The ever-popular Colour Run
-
Regular cake sales, book sales, and pre-loved uniform sales
Thanks to the generosity and support of families and friends, the past 12 months have seen the HSA make a real difference. We’ve funded:
-
Brand new school dining tables
-
A pantomine for all the children in the school
-
Additional equipment and educational literature
-
A contribution towards the Year 6 leavers’ celebration
We hold seven cake sales each academic year, with each year group taking turns to donate baked goods. In return, each class receives up to £150 to spend on an extra activity or resource of their choice — something special that goes beyond the everyday curriculum.
Get Involved
The HSA is run by a small committee of parents and staff, but we rely on the help and enthusiasm of a wider group of volunteers to make our events happen. Whether you can spare an hour to help at a stall, bake a cake, or offer a fresh fundraising idea every contribution makes a big impact.
Meetings are held as needed throughout the year, usually before or after events. Our Annual General Meeting (AGM) takes place each September, where we review the previous year and plan ahead for what’s to come.
We are incredibly grateful for the continued support from our school community. Together, we’re creating memorable experiences and meaningful opportunities for all our children.
The current team are:
Chair: Matt Boiles
Secretary: Emma Foster
Treasurer: Nick Jarvis
Please feel free to approach any committee member with suggestions, ideas or if you would like further information on the HSA and our events.
