ST AUGUSTINE'S PTA
The PTA is a charitable organisation made up of parents and members of staff. Together, we work hard to raise money that goes directly towards enriching the experience of every pupil at St Augustine’s.
Over the years, the PTA has helped fund school trips, playground equipment, classroom resources, new books, and much more.
We are also a willing team of helpers when extra hands are needed, we host social events that bring our community together, and we support families through times of change.

THE PTA NEEDS YOU
As a parent or carer of a child at St Augustine’s, you’re already a member of our PTA; you don’t need to sign up.
But we warmly invite you to get involved.
Practical help is often needed, and your time, skills, and even simply your presence are genuinely appreciated. Not only does it make a real difference, but children absolutely love seeing their families involved in school life. We strongly believe that school and families working together is the most positive way to raise funds and ensure the best educational experiences for our children.
More families involved means more events, more fun, and more opportunities for all pupils.
Here are just a few ways parents get involved:
- Helping at PTA events (film nights, quiz nights, bingo, school fayres, discos)
- Sharing skills or interests such as creativity, photography, sports, or dance
- Supporting occasional projects like gardening, maintenance, or equipment installations
Whatever you can offer, big or small, will always be appreciated.

AN AMBITIOUS PROJECT
Since January 2025, the PTA has been working closely with the school on an exciting major venture: purchasing a brand-new playground.
So far, we have raised over £17,000, and with continued support, we are getting closer every day to making this dream a reality.
We have already begun making meaningful improvements to the playground thanks to the joint efforts of parents and members of staff. A wonderful example is the creation of two mud kitchens, designed and built by a talented parent and fully funded by the PTA. These contributions show just how powerful our community can be when we work together.
If you feel you could help us in any way, big or small, please get in touch directly with our Headteacher.
