Friends of Whitehall Park School – parent, teacher and community association
We have an active PTCA at Whitehall Park School with a huge amount of involvement from parents across the school and other community members.
The main intention of a PTCA is to support the school, organise lots of fun, social events for parents and children. Occasionally we raise money through our events which is invested back into the school. Since we formed in Autumn 2014 the PTCA have raised over £20.000 towards additional school equipment and have organised Christmas and Summer fairs, Quiz Nights, Easter competitions and much more. There are a series of events planned for this year, please check the school calendar regularly for details.
