Friends of Buckstones

Did you know that every parent, grandparent and guardian of Buckstones is automatically a member of the P.T.A.? All members of the school community are encouraged to get involved, even if they only have a small amount of time available.

We need you!

We are fortunate as a school to have a PTA that’s an integral part of the school community. Over the last few years we have raised thousands of pounds, which has been spent on equipment and resources to enhance our children’s educational experience and the school’s facilities, these include new playground markings, ICT equipment, our Annual Pantomime visit amongst many other precious resources for all our children.

Our association is about much more than simply fundraising. The Friends of Buckstones exists to provide closer links between home and school and it is an excellent way to bring staff, parents and friends together socially in support of the school, working towards a common goal.

We welcome any help from parents, teachers and friends, we currently have a small group of volunteers who commit their time to helping the association. Every little helps, so just one hour of assisting at an event, wrapping lucky dip prizes or folding raffle tickets (just a few examples) would be invaluable. If you would like to join us please come along to our next meeting!

Our next meetings is the AGM 25th September at 6.30 in school
