Welcome to your Parents, Teachers and Friends Association
All parents and carers at Fritchley CE (Aided) Primary and Nursery School automatically become a member upon joining the school. It’s your association.
What is the Friends of Fritchley?
The Friends of Fritchley (FoF) Parent Teacher Friends Association is an open community of parent volunteers working alongside the school/teachers and other “friends” to benefit the school and ensure the best educational experience for all its pupils.
Parents and care givers have a big impact on how well their children do at school. Taking an active role in your PTFA is one of the ways you can make a difference and get involved. We raise money to fund school development through activities and events alongside providing a social network for parents.
Although a warm welcome is great, there’s more to PTFA activities than home baking and serving tea. Any parent can be a member and every parent has skills to bring - from graphic design to gardening; from events management to balancing the books; from wrapping up lucky dip gifts to handing out flyers!
