The Friends of Crowthorne

The Friends of Crowthorne is a charity run by a committee of parents, carers, teaching and non-teaching staff.  As a parent of a child at Crowthorne C of E Primary School you are automatically a member of The Friends and as such you can attend meetings, vote on proposals and make suggestions for spending or raising funds.  We welcome new members and fresh ideas, we value your views so please try and attend the meetings if you can.

The PTA Officers are:

The Class Reps are:

What do The Friends do?  We raise money to spend on improving equipment and resources to enhance our children’s education and the facilities in the school in general.  We bring staff, parents, pupils and friends together in support of our school.

How can you get involved?  There are many ways you can help and support your child through The Friends.   Here are some ways you can get involved:

Offers of help before, after or at events are so valuable.  It doesn’t matter if you can’t help on a regular basis, The Friends welcome any support it receives.

You can attend the AGM or meetings to give us ideas for fundraising events.

If you don’t have the time to help at events then your enthusiasm for what The Friends are doing is really beneficial so please try to support the events.

You can volunteer to be a Class Rep (CR) or a Committee member if you wish, come along to meetings to find out more.

If you have any contacts or skills we could use then this could be beneficial, please come along to a meeting or contact a member of The Friends to discuss ways this could be of use.

If you have suggestions on what money could be spent on we’d be interested to hear your ideas.

Finally, we are extremely grateful to receive donations – cash, cheque or via our online fundraising pages (contact The Friends Chair or Treasurer if you require more details).

Friends Lite

Have you ever wanted to support the school PTA with their events but don’t want to commit to joining every meeting and support every event?

More help, no matter how big or small, will positively impact funds we can raise to benefit your school community.

The Friends of CofE have launched a new initiative called 'Friends LITE'.

Sign up to help at our events on your terms, whenever you can...

There is a clever volunteering link to the first Friends LITE event on the leaflet attached to this mail - allowing you to choose what you want to do and when.

If the first event - The Circus, Saturday 10th June - doesn't work for you but you want to be added to the list of Friends LITE folks for future events then please email us to that effect at friendsofcrowthorne@gmail.com.

We look forward to and thank you in advance for all the support you can give.

The Friends Team :-)
