Welcome to Friends!

Our PTA group are Friends of Cookridge Primary School, for they work incredibly hard on an entirely voluntary basis to raise funds for our children. The funds raised by Friends pay for additional resources or provision that we would  - quite simply -  NOT be able to have if it were not for their hard work and dedication.. We all owe an enormous thank you to them for the hours they have all invested in our school!

Last year, our BIG project was raising funds to buy something for the playground. The children were consulted, and their choice was unanimous: a spiderweb climbing frame! It wasn't cheap but, together, we did it! Have a look at it in action in September - I have never seen so many delighted faces!


If you want to join our PTA group and do your bit for our school this year, please get in touch - more hands makes light work! We have big plans for the year ahead, and would be very grateful for your support. Our first meeting of the year is Tuesday 9th October at 6.30 and will be held in school in the community room, Funtime.
