St Paul's Together PTA

We are a volunteer group of parents, grandparents, carers and staff who contribute some of their spare time towards making a difference to every child’s experience at school, additionally developing valuable social liaisons throughout the academy and local community. We put together fun events to raise money for various projects (currently playground improvements) that we hope will enhance the children’s day-to-day experience and support the school in the fantastic work they do. We would love your support and are looking for volunteers to help us in any way, big or small, with the work that we do.

The PTA and Our Aims

St Paul’s Together (PTA) is putting on events such as the Summer Fest not only to bring families, teachers and the community together, but also to raise funds for projects we would like to see happen in the school. The pictures below give an idea of the ambitious plan we are fundraising towards.

Multi-functional Space

Whether it’s physical pay, creative exploration, socialising, an outside classroom, or the venue for an event, our design will work as a versatile and multi-use space. A box seating area doubles as a climbing structure, a stage, or a classroom, with planting to bring shade, height, and nature into the playground.

A Unique and Dynamic Play Area

Our vision is to make something really different for our school – to think outside the box for what a play area can be. We hope to make the design an eye-catching and inspiring space which promotes non-descriptive play and where children can be active and inspired by their environment.

Transient Space

The middle playground is a busy area with many people moving through it in all directions. We would like to use arches and patterned floor paint to direct and control this movement while making it a fun place for children to explore.

A Place for Everyone

Not only will this area be enjoyed by the children, but it will also act as a great meeting place for parents to gather and socialise at the end of the day in the quieter, calmer corners where they can meet and chat.
