Through the meetings that take place at the school and events organised, there is opportunity for parents and teachers to exchange views, work together and develop mutual trust and confidence. All of which benefits the children attending
the school. The events organised not only raise vital funds to provide much needed equipment that enhance and improve the children’s learning experience, but they allow parents, teachers and children, as well as the wider community to attended events in a relaxed environment.

The purchase of vital equipment and additional resources to advance and further the education of the children in the classroom and through sports. The development of the schools outdoor garden as a classroom facility has helped the children at the school to learn focus, patience, cooperation, teamwork and social skills. It also increases environmental awareness and the time spent outdoors reduces levels of stress and anxiety amongst the children.

At Suppa the committee plan and organise multiple events at the school, (eg Halloween Spooky Fun Night, Christmas Disco and Summer BBQ Night). During all of the school based events there is a second hand uniform stall for parents. The Suppa committee also organise events to engage the parents in the life of the school through activities such as
Balls, Days at the Races and Golf Days. All of the events provide opportunities for engaging relations between families and the school and raising much needed funds. The monies provide vital equipment for school such as interactive white boards, playground paintings, ICT subscriptions, transport for school outings and provision of iPads. We have taught the children about their social and ecological responsibilities through developing our school garden as an outdoor classroom facility. Future projects hope to strengthen our charitable activities within the local community.
