PTA

Well hello there!!

Welcome to the Repton Primary School PTA Page

Here you will find lots of information on events, meetings and all of our fundraising efforts as well as details on how you can get involved.

The committee is always very grateful for any help offered to run events and fresh ideas for fundraising. Even if you can't make it to our meetings (which are fun because we meet in The Boot) then just an hour of your time would be brilliant! To get involved you can email reptonprimarypta@gmail.com or grab one of the committee in the playground.

Please join our PTA events Facebook page or our Instagram page rpsptaevents to stay up to date.

Latest news......

With your support, the PTA have been lucky enough to provide additional learning and fun items for the children, including Balance Bikes for EYFS, class days out and the new sound system in the hall. We are excited to announce that our next fund raising project will be FOREST SCHOOLS. EYFS are lucky enough to benefit from Forest Schools already, however our aim is to allow all the children no matter which class they are in, to enjoy and participate in Forest Schools. For those of you who are not familar with the ethos of Forest Schools, please visit the website below for more information.

We already have an area behind the playground where Forest Schools takes place, but we would like to turn this into a larger area within the school grounds and train more staff members to deliver Forest Schools. Please watch this space for events that we will be running to fund this exciting project!

The first day back at school and Yr 6 were treated to a CSI day (half the cost of the course funded by the PTA). Marge and Emma were luckly enough to take part in the day as the kids learnt about crime scene investigations, DNA, fingerprinting and the criminal justice system. The day ended with a real-life interactive crime scene and the kids were able to take fingerprints and blood samples (fake thank goodness) and to try and solve the crime. Whilst the CSI day was good fun, the reason behind it was to support the childrens english work and they have done some super work following this.

Our festive Christmas Fayre was held on the 13th December and we raised an amazing £2056. Thank you to everyone who came and joined in the festive fun.

The new sound system has been fitted in the school hall and its fabulous! Marge and Emma were treated to a demonstration and were very impressed. Our future discos, fayres and assemblies will now be fancier than ever . This could not have been made possible without your help - so thanks! 

Please watch this space for further news of what the PTA is up to and has acheived with your help.

Next meeting.....

PTA PAYMENTS

Where possible, please could any PTA payments be made via the following options:

PayPal: rpsptapaypal@gmail.com

Bank transfer using the following bank details:

Natwest

Account: 25303651

Sort Code: 60-12-01

This should hopefully save parents/carers time and ensures that the children are not carrying money around with them. A reference number will be issued for each event if online payments are preferred. 

We will also try and have a contactless payment system in place for all events where possible. Thanks!
