To raise money to improve our children's school lives
We are a group of teachers, parents and friends of Blakehill primary school, we meet informally in the school staffroom, usually once a month. We raise money to support school, in making our children's lives better and enhance their learning. Some of the things we have helped school with in the past are; interactive whiteboards in every classroom, lighting equipment for the school drama club, developing the outdoor play provision, subsidsing school trips, buying Year 6 children a leaving present. Last year we paid for a xmas pantomime for all the children in school, we bought a new cooker for Reception class and we contributed towards the cost of the new key stage 2 (years 3, 4, 5 & 6) home reading books. Our annual events are a Xmas Fayre, Summer Fair, a themed school disco every term and a Mother and Father's day stall. Being a PTFA member does mean giving up some of your precious time, but it is a great way to meet other parents, teachers and support your child during their time at Blakehill, it can also be a lot of fun!

The Street Life project was set up to help empower and skill up local residents to participate in street based work, engage more proactively with their neighbours and take pride in their local community by taking ownership and leading on events and work.
