Brookfield School, like many other schools across London, has had its government income cut in the last few years. This is because of flat funding, increased costs and the proposed ‘Fairer Funding’ initiative. The PTA is committed to raising as much money as possible for the school, which is why we need your help.
The PTA is a registered charity that with the aim of enriching and supporting the education of all Brookfield children. It normally raises money through winter and summer fairs, bake sales and other events.
Each year it funds several trips for the children, including helping towards the costs of the year 6 residential week at Sayers Croft, the year 5 experience, the year 2 trip to Broadstairs and several others. It also helps towards various artistic activities including Shakespeare workshops, the FAB project, music lessons and instruments, swimming, and other learning resources.
If you want to know more about the PTA funded projects, please do get in touch.
