Cookery Equipment
The demand and wear on the equipment used in cookery is heavy and the Technology Department has seen an increase in the demand for cookery classes. Therefore, the PTA were happy to made a donation to ease the pain of mixing the quality of cooks & their receipes with the quantity of equipment.  
 
 
Art Books
March 2010 - The PTA made a donation to the Art Department for extra Art Books. 

 
Long Term Target - Interactive Whiteboard for Maths Dept
Congratulations!    We made it. For the last 2 years, one of the long term target of the PTA was the purchase of Interactive whiteboards. From each event, a set amount of monies was set aside and placed into the whiteboard pot.
 
And it is true - pennies makes pounds.
 
This week (4/1/10) the PTA proudly presented Mr Cox with a donation towards the purchase of an interactive whitebaord.  The school kindly matched the PTA donation to make this purchase a reality.
