Parent Teacher Association
The Grant's Braes Parent Teacher Association (PTA) facilitates the links between the school and wider community, and provides a fantastic opportunity to get to know other parents and teachers. We are involved in organising social events that bring the school community together (such as the school fair and quiz nights) and also help raise funds that directly benefit our children. Everybody is welcome, and we are interested in receiving any ideas that will enable us to continue to support our great school community.
Our PTA fundraising has contributed to a vast array of projects and purchases that support our children’s learning, particularly covering “extras” that are not necessarily funded by the Ministry of Education. Below are some recent examples:
- Heat Pumps for the junior classrooms
- Outdoor carpet to cover the concrete landing and steps outside the senior classrooms
- Chromebooks
- Classroom board games (for wet weather days!).
