PARENT TEACHER TEAM
The PTT is the voice of the parents and an official forum for parents and teachers to exchange ideas in support of the school. We work alongside the Board of Management, Principal and the whole school community for the betterment of the children in the school.
Another aspect of the PTT is to enrich the experience of the children in our school, we do this by fundraising and organising some of the fun community building events for the pupils (and parents too).
Funds raised by the PTT go towards vital teacher supplies for classroom activities, larger school needs such as ICT equipment and our new school stage, as well as other significant projects or experiences.
If there is a particular issue or need you see in the school that we should address, please reach out to any of the team. We welcome all input for our monthly meetings.
