Welcome to our school PTA page.
Every parent who has a child at St Peter’s School is automatically a member of the Parent Teacher Association. But, it’s up to you how involved you become as your child develops at school.
We are always looking for new faces and new ideas to raise vital funds for school activities. Last year the PTA paid for an ‘M and M Theatre Group’ visit, Keystrings Music concert and new netbooks, as well as making a contribution to school transport costs for trips/gym and swimming. We really do make a difference!
These funds were raised via activities such as hosting a stall at the Christmas Fair, serving tea and coffee at school events, organising the Summer Fair and running quiz evenings and such like. We also work with school to host Film Nights, collect Dragon bags of second hand clothes, run books sales etc.
We have included some pictures from the archives below, but as you can imagine, right now our activities are a bit different to previous years and we are always looking for ways we can raise money to continue to support school and vital resources for our children’s education.
We are trying new things all the time, so please read on to find out how you can help us raise money even in these challenging times.
If you have any unwanted clothing, please drop it off at school directly into our Box Drop which is situated in the teacher’s car park. Daffi the Dragon is the mascot for Dragon Bags and this initiative raises funds and eco-awareness in school as the clothes are recycled. More about Dragon Bags (including what you can and can’t put into the bags) can be found here.
Just this term the collection has already paid us £64! Thanks to all who have donated a bag so far. Keep them coming!
Please sign up for Easy Fundraising.
This is super-easy but has the potential to raise lots of money for little effort! By signing up to ‘Easy fundraising’, when you shop online, we’ll automatically receive a small donation, at no cost to you. Find out more here and sign up on the website https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk and register to support the cause called “St Peters CIW Primary School PTA”
Could you help us with match funding?
If you work for a business that offers ‘match funding’, we can work with you so that St Peter’s receive a donation from your company that ‘matches’ funds we have raised (usually from a specific event or stall). More details are below, but please get in touch for more information.
The 100 Club
Delyth Jones continues to run the 100 Club. This school year we want to really push to get 100 members. The more people who join, the higher the prize money as 50% of each months’ takings is distributed in prizes.

Whilst the restrictions placed upon us by the coronavirus pandemic continue, we have moved our PTA work online and meetings are now held on Zoom.
We have an interested and active committee. Hannah McCrimmon is chair and Ruth Ward, treasurer. We are very grateful to these parents for taking on the roles of office and for the other parents who make up the committee.
