Lottery
Sonning Common Primary School PTA have a lottery, tickets cost just £1 each, for each weekly draw; 40% of ticket sales are donated to our school. Since we started it nearly 2 years ago, it has raised over £3900 for our school. You can buy as many tickets as you wish (and choose your lucky numbers) and it’s all paid online via a direct debit. The school is aiming to raise £1,000 in the first year in order to buy classroom equipment for all of your children to benefit from.
There is a GUARANTEED cash prize to someone from our school supporter list every week, and a further chance of winning £25,000 in a separate nationwide draw every week! We have had lots of winners so far!
To start supporting, please visit Lottery and search for Sonning Common Primary School. Tell your friends and family to join in too.

Money from old clothes
We collect your unwanted clothing at your convenience. Just drop your bagged old clothes or shoes into our green collection bin situated in the Sonning Common Library carpark. SCPS receive 40p per kilo from the materials collected. They take clothes, shoes, accessories, bed linen and soft toys (but not duvets or cushions or curtains).

How to contact us

If you’d like to get involved with the PTA, or have some good ideas for fundraising, please email pta@sonning-common.oxon.sch.uk or speak to any of the committee members.

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.
