The PTA
Welcome to Roundwood Park PTA.
We are a fundraising committee run by parents and carers of children at Roundwood Park school.
We support the school by raising money to enhance the school environment and our children’s education. We ensure that all the funds raised benefit all the children at the school.
Our established events calendar is well supported, providing fun and relaxed events, such as the Quiz Night and Comedy Night where parents can meet and enjoy a welcome and entertaining night out. We run a second hand uniform sale and offer refreshments at all the parent consultations. We raise approximately £15,000 for the school every year. Recent campaigns have included 570 new classroom tables with chairs and a complete dining room refurbishment.
From September 2019 our new two-year fundraising campaign is to raise £40,000 for a new mini-bus. It will replace a mini-bus that is 17 years old, used to transport children on; trips, 6th Form consortium lessons, academic and sporting activities.
Many secondary schools no longer have a PTA, please help us to keep ours going.
We are always very grateful for any volunteers that can help run our events. With increasingly busy lifestyles it is not always easy to commit to events and activities so we operate a bank of helpers that are emailed prior to each event to assist with different elements as their time allows. Without the support we receive from our committee members and helpers, the hugely beneficial projects would not be possible. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you can help.
If you cannot attend any events but would like to support the PTA we also run a donation scheme on Parent Pay and accept standing orders. These alone are becoming more popular and currently raise approx. £300 every month.
Roundwood Park PTA is a registered charity and full details of the funds raised are presented in the PTA Treasurer’s Report at the Annual General Meeting each November.
Details of our meeting dates and events are on our newsletters or please follow us on Twitter @RPS_PTA.

Thank you for your support
