Wendell ParkFriends PTA
Welcome to the Friends of Wendell Park. We are the Friends-Parent-Teacher Associate (PTA) at the school. We are a registered charity run by volunteers. We raise money for the school and have fun while we do it! The money we raise funds fabulous extras for the children whilst building our school community for the better.
All parents, carers and school staff are automatically members. Please get involved however and whenever you can. From clicking a couple of links when you do your online shopping to running a stall at an event or just having a coffee with us - get involved, everyone is welcome!
Have an idea for an enrichment or fundraising activity? Have a burning issue close to your heart you'd like the PTA to know about? Get in touch via email thefriendsofwendellpark@gmail.com , come to a coffee morning or ask your class rep to add you to the FOWP What'sApp group.

To advance the education of pupils in the school in particular by developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school; engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which support the school and advance the education of the pupils.

How to volunteer
The FOWP is run entirely on a voluntary basis. Any and all help you can give is really welcome and valued. The PTA is welcoming and inclusive - it is a great way to get to know other parents, teachers and the school better. We also have trustees that might take responsibility for a specific project or part of our work. Please do let us know if you would like to join as a trustee. Volunteering in an official capacity for a charity is a great insight into the charitable sector.
Meet-Ups
We hold regular meet-ups (when possible) at the school and in the local area. These are a chance for parents to meet up and plan PTA activities.
Donate
Make a one off or regular donation via our CAF Donate platform. Because we are a charity, we can claim GiftAid; eligible donations are increased by 25% by the government. DONATE TODAY. We try to keep our events accessible, fun and affordable so donations are very important to our fundraising. With just £2 per month per family, we could raise £10,000 per year for extras for the school! Please consider making a donation.
