Friends of Olga (FOO)
The Friends of Olga (FOO) are a group of parents and carers who organise events to have fun and raise money for school projects. FOO is a registered charity, and our constitutional aims are to:
- contribute to the well being of the members of the Olga Primary School community
- raise funds for the benefit of the school or students
- fund or partially fund improvement of school facilities, equipment or environment or to provide enrichment of the students education.
We raised over £10,000 in 2021-22 through Christmas and summer fairs, raffles, food and book sales, class photos and festive cards. FOO want to include as many people as possible - no help is too big or too small! We're interested to hear from anyone who wants to chip in and help deliver our fundraising and community events and activities throughout the year, or can offer special skills or sponsorship.
We hold an AGM each December to appoint committee members - there are both office holders and general roles. In addition we have a WhatsApp group to keep people informed of upcoming activities and how to get involved - text Lucy on 07850 350 267 to join the group, or email us at friendsofolgaschool@gmail.com.
