FRIENDS OF FRENSHAM

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, and their contribution is vital to its success. The emphasis is on partnership between home and school.

Our aim is to bring together students, parents and staff through fun, informal events and to raise funds for the benefit of all the children to enhance their time at the school. We hold coffee morning meetings each term where ideas are exchanged, and events and activities are organised. Every parent is welcome to attend these meetings.

The FOF committee consists of five elected members - the Chair, Treasurer, Secretary and two Officers. We recently gained charity status and are becoming a more traditional looking parents’ association. If you’d like to be a part of FOF or just find out more please click here to email Gayle.
