Welcome to the Wickham Market School Association (WMSA) Web page
All parents, carers, guardians and staff are welcome to attend our meetings and share their ideas with us. Please don’t be shy, we would love to see you there.
We are a fundraising committee (and registered charity), aiming to raise funds that benefit every single student in the school. We are passionate about our school and helping to improve the resources and facilities for our children during a time when school budgets are tighter than ever.
This year we are raising funds to improve the school library and for new playground equipment to replace the trim trail.
We are always looking for new fundraising ideas and opportunities, but we already raise money through the following fun events and initiatives:
Check out the School Association Notice Board which is regularly updated with our latest events, money raised and help requests. It is situated outside the Year 3/ 4 Classroom. You can see it from the playground.
The current Members of the PTA are:
Chair - Kay Brundell
Vice Chair and Treasurer - Jo Maghoo
Secretary – Alison Calvesbert-Rearden
Staff Representative:- Jo Harris
Other members are Susan Hallett, Gemma Potter, Amanda Allen
If you have any questions, you can talk to any School Association Committee member. Grab us in the playground for a chat when you see us.
We appreciate that everyone leads busy lives. We don’t need a commitment to attend every meeting or event. Any time or support that anyone can give is gladly welcomed. Here are a few ideas of what you can do:
We ask for help via the Wickham Market School Association Facebook page leading up to events. We really appreciate all our helpers. Thank you!
Do you work for an employer who will match fund? If so please contact us. It can increase our fund raising considerably. You may be surprised that your employer does offer such a thing and it helps enormously so please ask – it’s often just filling in a form.
Do you work for an organisation or run a business yourself and would consider sponsoring an event? We are always looking for sponsors.
Do you work for a retailer who can offer us discount or a raffle prize? We'd love to hear from you.
Anyone can sign up for this online at https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/wickhammarketsa/
It’s a great site where you can help Wickham Market School Association raise funds simply by doing your everyday online shopping! Over 3,500 big name retailers are included, such as Amazon, Argos, John Lewis, ASOS, eBay, Boden and M&S.
Every time you shop, we receive a small donation to say ‘thank you!’ It’s completely free and over £20M has been raised for causes just like us so far.
Perhaps you have a particular set of skills that could help us? Donating time is invaluable. Are you a handyperson? Gardener? Entertainer? Chef? The list is endless! We would love to put your skills to good use.
We couldn’t do any of this without YOU. Thank you So much for attending our events and supporting us.
