Friends of Walesby School consists of a group of parents and teachers who hold fundraising events throughout the year to provide additional equipment and support school projects for the benefit of all the children. To find out what we have been up to this year see the details below and look out for forthcoming events on the diary page.
F.O.W.S are always looking for help and new committee members and you do not have to give up alot of time to get involved. If you are willing to run a stall at an event, help behind the scenes ( such as baking or washing up) or you have an idea for a future event then speak to a committee member. Those on the committee are a friendly bunch and we can guarantee that if you do volunteer you will have fun whilst doing something worthwhile for the children.
As a committee we would like to thank all parents, grandparents, carers, children and staff for their continued support and enthusiam without it we would not be able to provide so much for the pupils and school.
Many thanks,
The FOWS Committee
