PTA Newsletter - February 2024.

The PTA Committee is bustling with activity, diligently planning events, exploring grant opportunities, and finding creative ways to fundraise while keeping the load manageable for parents and guardians. We'll take you behind the scenes in this February newsletter with an exciting update.


Fox and Bear Coffee Bar

Get ready for our first Stay and Play - 08/03 starting at 8:15 am. 

Let's come together for a brilliant community-building opportunity! Parents, grandparents and extended family are invited. Whether you're joining or not, RSVP <here> today to help us plan accordingly. 


What to expect?


Fox and Bear Coffee Bar are joining the event to sell hot drinks and pastries. Cake Crumbs (@cakecrumbs2018) will sell loaf cake and biscuits. They kindly agreed to share their profits to support our projects. Join us for breakfast, and let's fundraise together for the benefit of our children. To add a touch of fun, Énergy Fitness - Chingford Gym will host yoga, HIT, and circuit classes – open to all family members!

Contact us to lend your support to our grant applications!


We applied for TESCO (£1500) and Woodland Trust (free trees) so far. But we are in the process of applying for the Heritage Fund Grant (£10k). Please keep your fingers crossed for us!
