Our PTA takes the form of FOSS; The Friends of Selborne School. We organise fundraising events such as Quiz Night, the May Fair, film nights, discos and the hugely popular FOSStival music festival. These fun events and allow families to meet and socialise whilst making the most of what it is to be part of a small community-based village school.

The funds are used to fulfil needs that our school has that go beyond its own budget, as well as pay for some very nice-to-have add-ons to the school curriculum to complement our children’s education.

Over the last year FOSS has spent £10,013 on a variety of activities and resources including:  

Christmas Pantomime; Listen to Me; Kite-making workshop; IT upgrades; Doodle Maths subscription; garden improvements; books for the school library; outdoor learning resources

All parents are automatically members of FOSS and we encourage everyone to get involved in some way; perhaps you have the skillset to design a label for our new apple juice, are willing to supervise a film night or spend an hour or two tidying the school grounds? All offers of help will be gratefully received!
