PTA
Welcome to the Elworth C of E Primary School Parent Teacher Association (PTA)
Who We Are
The Elworth C of E Primary School Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is a dedicated group of parents, guardians, and staff working together to enrich our children’s educational experience. We are a volunteer-led organisation that fosters strong connections between parents, guardians and school, ensuring that every child benefits from a well-supported and engaging learning environment.
Chair – Pieter Clarke
I’m delighted to serve as Chair of the Elworth Primary School PTA this academic year. I feel incredibly fortunate to have the support of such a fantastic team, including Becky, Louise, and our wider group of dedicated helpers.
Our key focus this year is raising over £15,000 to support the development of the school’s library—a project that will greatly enrich the educational experience for our children. Personally, being part of the PTA has been a rewarding journey, allowing me to grow as a leader, use existing knowledge, and feel like we are making a difference.
While I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, I’m even more excited about the challenges ahead. We’re striving to broaden our team, strengthen our impact, and create even more opportunities to support the school community in meaningful ways.
Lastly, I want to highlight that the PTA welcomes involvement from everyone.
Together, we can make a lasting difference for the school and our children.
Vice Chair – Becky Fitzhugh
As a parent and member of staff at Elworth C of E, I was keen to become involved in the valuable work that the PTA carries out. I feel it is important that children and their families can get involved in a full and enriching experience at Primary School. In turn, the money raised through the events we organise has a direct impact on the children’s school life. We feel it is important to establish a PTA that has longevity and can continue to grow and enhance Elworth well into the future. At this stage, the PTA needs to grow, so we encourage all parents and carers to get involved and do as much, or little, as they can.
Treasurer – Louise Stanway
I'm thrilled to be a part of the Elworth C of E primary school Parent Teacher Association! As a parent of two children at the primary school I wanted to get more involved in the school community and help make a positive impact on our children's education. It was important to me to help and continue with the fundraising events that enhance our children's experience and resources at school
Being part of the PTA has been an incredibly rewarding experience - I've met wonderful people, learned more about how the school operates and had the chance to contribute to exciting projects that benefit all students. I look forward to continuing to make a difference and working alongside other dedicated parents and staff.
