Parents' Association

A warm welcome to all parents and families of our amazing students.

We are the Kingsley Friends, a team of parents and teachers whose main purpose is to foster the community spirit amongst our wonderful families. By bringing people together and raising funds, we are genuine shareholders in shaping our fantastic school whilst having some fun at the same time.

We hold various events throughout the year, including Bonfire Night and the Christmas Fayre where students and their families can get involved and be proud of their school community. There are also events planned where the parents and staff can socialise outside of the school environment.

As well as the social side, we maintain an amazing second-hand uniform shop which is always well stocked, thanks to the generosity of the parent body.

The results of all these endeavours are funds that are put towards various projects that go over and above what you would expect from the school.  The extra bits that supplement the welfare, happiness, and enjoyment of the students.  To date, we have funded Christmas parties and presents for the prep school children, and Technic Lego kits for the STEM pathway in the senior school.  The Earth Centre as well as sports, arts and outdoor education have benefitted from thousands of pounds raised through the PTA.

All these things are achievable through volunteering. We are lucky enough to have a brilliant team of fun and energetic individuals, who love to step up and get involved. We are always looking for more people to join the team and enjoy the feeling that volunteering gives you. 

If you feel able to spare some of your time to be part of a successful event, we would love to hear from you.  We have fun doing this and meeting new people too, and there is never any pressure to sign up to anything.  Come and join us for one of our meetings or coffee mornings to see what we are about, or contact us at pta@kingsleyschoolbideford.co.uk

Warm regards,
