A little bit about us:
We are a group of parents that get together every few months to plan exciting fundraising events and activities for all the children of Churchtown.

Events Include:
The Summer Fair
Easter & Christmas Bingo
School Discos
Film Clubs... to name but a few
Contributions:

Class Christmas Presents
High Visibility jackets for the benefit of all school children
Purchase of Interactive Whiteboards for class 2 & 3
Times Tables Rock Star maths software
Leavers' Hoodies

Other things we do to help:
