Respect, Aspire, Achieve
“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10 v.10)”

Friends of Garton School (FoGS)

The principle aim of the Friends is to raise money to buy the extras that the school budget does not support. We do this by organising social events for both children and parents throughout the year. We hope to put together events to suit all tastes and we are always happy to receive your comments and suggestions for the future.

We have supplied play equipment for the adventure playground, subsidised school trips and many other things chosen by the children and staff.

Here are just a few examples:

Trips to the pantomime
Equipment for the adventure playground
Easter egg hunt
Library books
Home reading books
Sports kit
Sports equipment

FOGS hopes to provide a friendly social point for parents, grandparents and carers beyond the school gate – a network where you are able to share experiences/ideas, make new friends and contribute to the life of the school.

FOGS comprises of:

The Chairperson – responsible for:

setting agendas
keeping meetings on track

The Secretary – responsible for:

taking notes and circulating minutes of meetings

The Treasurer – responsible for:

record of income and expenditure

The School Communication Liaison – is responsible for:

All Friends – responsible for:

There is a huge bank of skills and talent amongst parents, grandparents and carers. By virtue of visiting this site you are a ‘friend’ – there are many ways to join in and it will only involve a little of your time.
