Parents' Social Association
Why not join the PSA?
The Parents' Social Association at Queen's College Junior, Pre-Prep and Nursery School exists for everyone involved with the schools - parents, pupils and teachers.
In order to carry out this role we are constantly seeking to recruit parents to help with the events that we put on during the year. This does not have to be a big commitment.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much time is involved?
The committee meets on average once every half term. Extra meetings are called if we have a big event to organise. Not all members are able to come to every meeting, all we ask is that you attend as many as you can. It may be that you feel you do not want to be on the committee but would still like to help; we warmly welcome parents who can help at events.
Social events
Our primary aim is to provide entertainment and events throughout the year, which are enjoyable for everyone.
Fundraising
We raise funds during the course of the year through some of the events we stage. As we are a non-profit making organisation any money we raise is used to purchase equipment for the children throughout the Junior, Pre-Prep and Nursery departments.
Where does the money go?
In 2002 we provided the Junior School with a table tennis table.
In 2003 we helped to buy the Pre-Prep an outdoor climbing frame.
In 2004 we gave the Nursery £500 towards new play equipment.
In 2005 we raised money for the purchase of two shade sails for the Pre-Prep and Junior playgrounds.
In 2006 we purchased outdoor play equipment.
In 2007 we helped purchase AverVision projectors for most of the form rooms.
In 2008 we purchased a new play train for the Pre-Prep playground, and some gazeboes to provide more shade in the playground
The Annual General Meeting is held in October, and we warmly invite you to come along.
