Parents, Teachers and Friends Association (PTFA)

Chair: Holly Knight

We are very fortunate indeed to have a very active and supportive PTFA at Milborne Port Primary School. All parents, grandparents and carers are automatically members of the PTFA. We actively encourage as many parents/carers/staff/friends of Milborne Port Primary to join our PTFA Committee. We have very active Facebook and Instagram pages so please do give us a follow.

Over the last couple of years our Raffles, Virtual Pet Show, Loose Change Challenge and Mufti Days along with other events has enabled us to raise thousands of pounds. We hope that not only these will continue but we will be able to reintroduce the Summer Fair and Discos that the school benefitted from before COVID.  Over the past few years we have paid for Class trips, books and subscriptions to online learning programmes such as Sumdog and Spelling shed which pupils can access at home as well as within school and leavers hoodies for the Year 6 pupils.  

How can you help?

Attend a PTFA meeting (or perhaps even join the PTFA Committee)

These meetings are an incredible opportunity for you to have your say about what you think the school needs, they give you the opportunity to help your children have the best possible education by allowing us, as parents, to raise the money for extra curricular activities, school trips, technology and so much more. This is our opportunity to not only support the teachers, but to thank them for all of the hard work they do by making their jobs a little easier. If you have an idea but time isn’t on your side, please email us and one of the committee will be happy to have a chat with you to see if we can move your idea forward from “just a thought” and make it happen.

Shopping online through Easyfundraising.

All you need to do, once registered, is to find your online retailer through https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/milborneportptfa/ and the school will receive a donation each time you shop.

Joining our School Lottery

Just go to www.yourschoollottery and find Milborne Port Primary School. You have a chance to win up to £25,000 and each week our school has a winner.

Donating school uniform

This can then be sold off at a much reduced price to both help raise funds for the school and also provide even more affordable uniform for parents.

Support different PTFA events

We try to put regular updates on the school newsletters and also on both our Facebook and Instagram pages. Please check these regularly and join us whenever you can!
