|  Hello
Everyone. I’m John Wilson and I’m the
new president of the Gryffe High School Parent Teacher
Association.
I’ll briefly tell you
about the important part that the PTA plays in the
life of the school, what we do as a group, and how
you can contribute towards the extra benefits that
the PTA can provide for the school and your children.
Like
everything else, the school runs to a budget and
like every budget, it’s limited. That’s
where the PTA comes in. By raising extra funds for
the school, we can provide the additional items
that add to the pupils’ enjoyment of the school.
Grand
Easter Raffle
To be drawn on 28th March 2007.
As a fund-raiser this year we are having an exciting
raffle with excellent prizes. This has been organised
by the PTA committee through local business contacts.
Please remember the support these businesses are
giving us and support them in return.
All the funds raised by this raffle go towards boosting
the school’s resources, which can include
everything from extra text books, televisions, teaching
aids, musical instruments, team strips, right through
to assisting with extra curricular transport this
year. The list is endless and we ask every department
for a wish list of items they need to help aid our
children’s school experience.
There
are only seven members on the committee this year
and if you feel that you could help in any way we
would appreciate your input. We normally meet four
times a year so please help if possible. The next
meeting is on 14th March 2007 at Gryffe High School,
Spateston Campus.
