Parent Group
Newbury Parent Group helps our school by encouraging parent involvement, supporting our teachers, assisting with family events and doing a bit of fundraising.
They are a voluntary organisation made up of interested parents and teachers who get together on a monthly basis to hear what is happening in the school and discuss ways that we can help to support the teachers and our children.
All parents are welcome to come to meetings. You can just come to hear what’s going on or if you’ve got some spare time you can offer to help out with our occasional fundraising activities and voluntary jobs.
It is a great way of getting to know other families in our school. At Newbury we truly value the partnership between our parents, teachers the school and our children.
