Who are we?

We are a voluntary group made up of parents and carers involved with the school.

What do we do?

We organise fundraising events at school.  Over the past few years despite a particularly challenging time for everyone we have raised lots of money for the school.

Why do we raise funds?

We raise funds in order to provide a variety of fun and enriching experiences throughout your child’s time at school

Where does the funding go?

In order to enrich the children’s experiences within the school, the Friends of Lynsted and Norton Primary School have funded:-

-help with transport for school trips

-School Discos

-Film nights

-Christmas Crafts

-Easter Eggs for the whole school

-Books and equipment for the school library

- Year 6 Leavers Hoodies
