Friends of High Beech School

A Quick Intro. .

The Friends of High Beech Primary School are proud to support the school in several ways: 

Raising Money

In recent years, we have funded audio visual equipment, kitchen facilities, classroom equipment, school outings and class activities .

Contributing to School Life

We love to organise events for the school children and their families, bringing the school community together . We believe that we are a vital link between the home and school environment and work hard to enrich the lives of the families at High Beech Primary School through fun events. Below you can see a few photos from some of our highlights: 

School Glow Disco, Film Night, Christmas Fayre, Santa's Grotto, Eldridge's Gift Shopping, Christmas Lunch Party 

Monthly School Lottery, Smarties Home Help Challenge, Pancake Day, Mothers’ Day Tea, Easter Treasure Hunt .

Fathers’ Day Breakfast, Loyalty Shopping Cashback Scheme and our grand finale Summer Fete .

How it works

We are a small school, with about 75 families overall . We are not really big enough for a formal committee and structures, so it is very informal . 

We have meetings once or twice a term, which are open to everyone . Most recently these have been run virtually with good success . 

Different people lead or help with particular projects, so we spread the load. Some people don’t want to or can't attend meetings, but want to help out at events or take on a specific role. (e.g running a tombola or serving drinks at the Christmas Nativity). Some people have great ideas about new things they want to do, and we welcome this and can support you to take these forward.  

This allows us all to contribute in whatever way we feel best and means you can get involved as much or as little as you wish .
