Our P.T.F.A. is a group made up of members of our school community, including parents, carers and staff. Our main aim is to raise funds for St Columba’s Catholic Primary School, helping to provide additional opportunities, experiences and resources that benefit all of our pupils.

We are incredibly grateful for the support we receive from our school families and wider community. Every donation, contribution and helping hand makes a real difference.

We are always on the lookout for new volunteers and members to help support our fundraising events. You don’t need lots of spare time or fundraising experience — every little bit helps!

Perhaps you have an hour to spare at an event, an idea for a fundraiser, or a skill or talent that you could share. If you have any suggestions about how we could raise money for the school, we would love to hear from you.

Over the last year, the PTFA has organised a variety of fundraising activities, including:

*  Witch Scratch Cards

*  Coin Wars

* ⁠ Breakfast with Santa

*  Christmas Fayre

*  World Cup Sweepstake

*  End-of-Year Tea Towels

Thanks to the generosity and support of our school community, we have been able to fund our annual events and, most recently, hold our first ever 'Columba Rocks Festival' — a fantastic event for our children, families and wider school community to enjoy together.

We have also been proud to support our local community by donating Christmas gifts to the children’s ward, helping to bring a little extra joy to children spending Christmas in hospital.

We have lots of exciting fundraising ideas planned for the future, including:

* Scratch Cards

* ⁠Craft night

* Autumn Disco

* Bake Sales

* Christmas Cards

* Breakfast with Santa

* Christmas Fayre

* Coin Wars

* Easter Fayre

* 100 Club

* End-of-Year Tea Towels

None of this would be possible without the incredible support of our St Columba’s families, staff and wider community.

Whether you buy a cake, take part in a fundraiser, donate an item, volunteer at an event or simply spread the word, we are truly very grateful. Your support helps us to create special memories and provide experiences and opportunities for the children of St Columba’s.

Together, we can make a difference!
