(FoDGFS)
Friends of Dedworth Green First School (FoDGFS) is the Dedworth Green First School Parent Teacher Association (PTA).
Our aims are to:
- Organise events which are enjoyed by parents, pupils and teachers alike
- Raise funds through those events to enhance the education of the children at the school
- Have fun and meet other parents along the way!
How Can You Help and Get Involved:
Every parent is welcome to get involved as they choose.
From attending our termly meetings which are very relaxed or our social events- both great ways to meet other parents, have fun and support the school.
We are always looking for new volunteers, whether you have a great idea and would like to run an event or you would like to help now and again, just let us know. Any time given is hugely appreciated as everything makes a difference. Whether it is baking a cake for a cake sale, giving an hour of your time to man a stall at an event, being part of the organising team for an event, or coming up with a new idea for ways we can raise money.
If you have any questions or wish to become more involved with the PTA, then please feel free to chat with one of the many parents already involved, or contact the School Office.
