FRIENDS OF FRENSHAM
Registered Charity: 1200353
At Frensham Heights we are fortunate to have a great parents’ association called Friends of Frensham (FOF), which is the social, event-organising and community-building part of our school.
Every parent with a child at the school is automatically a member of FOF. There’s no subscription or fee but their contribution is vital to its success.
Our emphasis is on partnership between home and school and we aim to bring pupils, parents and school together through fun, informal events which raise funds for the benefit of all the children to enhance their time at the school.
The FOF board consists of five elected members, and the FOF committee is made up of 7 parents. Last year we gained charity status and are continuing to gain momentum. We are currently looking for volunteers to become FOF reps to help welcome new parents, and to make all parents aware of activities, fundraising events and social gatherings coming up. If you’d like to be a part of FOF or just find out more email chair@fofrensham.com .
We also hold coffee morning meetings each term where ideas are exchanged, and events and activities are organised and every parent is welcome to attend these meetings.
