Events are always more successful with the support of the parent community. Volunteering to help at the bar on Fireworks Night, decorating the school for Christmas, donating or buying pre-loved uniform from the FoS shop, or manning a stall for an hour at an event are all ways to get involved.
There’s always a FoS committee member to show you the ropes and it’s a great way to meet more parents, not to mention being good fun. Even an hour of your time can make such a difference.
Please keep an eye out for the sign up link that is sent out before each event. If every parent could find some time to sign up for just one hour a year FoS would have all the support it needs.
If you have ideas for future events or activities or have feedback that could improve what we do please share via info@friendsofsherfield.org.
