PTA Uniform Shed

The uniform shed is open every Friday afterschool for the sale of secondhand uniform, ALL items are just 50p!  What a bargain.  There is plenty of stock at the moment so come and grab yourselves some uniform.

Christmas Fair

We are pleased to announce that our Christmas Fair will take place on Saturday 28th December 12-3pm. There will be lots to enjoy and we hope you can join us on the day.  To be able to hold the  Fair as best we can, we need plenty of volunteers to help us set up before and help on each stall during the fair. Without enough help we may not be able to hold all the activities we’d like to. We would be very grateful if you could find some time to help by emailing pta@sonning-common.oxon.sch.uk

Thursday 26th November is a non-uniform day for the children. On this day, we ask that you bring in a donation of either:

Bottle for the adult’s tombola
Wrapped small gift suitable for boys or girls for the children’s tombola
Preloved toys for our sale
Suitable donations for our hamper raffle

If you have something you would like to donate please email pta@sonning-common.oxon.sch.uk

Sonning Common has always prided itself on being a partnership between staff, parents, governors and children.  All parents/carers of children at SCPS are members of the SCPS PTA and we exist to not only to fundraise for the school but to create a social opportunity for parents, staff and pupils to get together. Your PTA makes sure all the money raised is spent as effectively as possible across the whole school.

Our chair is Emily Doubek, our secretary is Tiff Belcher, the treasurer role is currently vacant.

Would you like to get involved in the PTA?

If you would like to find out more about the PTA, our fundraising goals and how we support our school,  please email pta@sonning-common.oxon.sch.uk or speak to any of the committee members.

Whether it’s for a one off event, a particular activity or a more long term involvement, we are keen to get more parents involved in the PTA.

• Maybe you’d like to join our working groups for the Fairs?
• Do you want to help us with marketing our events?
• Can you help us apply for school funding grants?

You don’t have to get involved in the PTA all year round, maybe just join us certain times of the year, or just specialise in one activity.  There are many ways you could help. We occasionally meet in person but it’s mostly monthly online meetings but of course you’re not committing to joining us every time.

Any time you can give to helping the PTA would benefit the school and in turn your children. If you’d like to get involved or have an informal chat for more information, feel free to have a chat with your year rep below or drop us an email on pta@sonning-common.oxon.sch.uk
