PTFA AGM
You can read the minutes of the 2025 AGM, held on 2nd July 2025, here.
Fulbourn Primary School Parents, Teachers and Friends Association (PTfA)
That's all of us!
We are not an exclusive club. We are just a group of parents, organising some events to help make the school a great place to be.
The PTfA support the school by organising social events and raising funds which go directly to the school for the direct benefit of the children.
Did you know?
PTfA funds have previously paid for
The outdoor play equipment
The new library
The Big Cat reading book scheme
Maintenance of the school swimming pool
A range of other resources including musical instruments, computers and garden equipment
The PTfA Committee and being a member
Our current committee:
Ingrid - Chair
Kelly - Vice-Chair
Halley - Secretary
Vacancy - Treasurer
As a committee, we steer the co-ordination of PTfA events and link closely on a regular basis with the Headteacher and the Men in Schools group.
But we can't do it alone! We are always looking for more helpers and new ideas to bring to the PTfA. All talents are welcome and there are opportunities to contribute a little or a lot or anything in between.
The PTfA meets regularly to plan activities such as discos, quizzes, Christmas and summer fairs and social gatherings, and we take part in the running of events. It is a great way to get involved in school life, meet other parents, have some fun and support our children through fundraising!
If you'd like to find out more:
Please get in touch with Sarah via the PTfA email, fulbournprimaryptfa@gmail.com, or leave your name and contact details at the school office at any time and they can pass your details on.
Safeguarding
As a school, safeguarding is always a priority and this extends to school volunteers. Halley Petrovski and Ingrid Baumann from the PTfA team both hold enhanced DBS Certificates and the school has carried out full volunteer safeguarding checks for them.
Labelling uniform - don't forget
Please make sure that you label all of your child's clothing and belongings which they wear/bring to school. If you order name labels from http://www.stikins.co.uk the PTFA earns 30% commission on every order when you use our fundraising code 7650. Parents from our school who already use Stikins have commented on how good they are.
A fun evening was had by all who attended our Painty Party, and we raised over £500 in the process.
Congratulations to Kate Harvey, on completing the Cambridge Half Marathon on Sunday. Including Gift Aid, Kate raised in excess of £500 in sponsorship for the PTFA. Thank you and well done, Kate!
