Message From The Chairman of the PTA

The Kerem Parent-Teacher Association is a lively and active group made up of the parents of pupils from both Kerem House and Kerem School. There is a small executive committee and we are always happy to hear from new parents who would like to take an active part in the Association. We exist firstly to raise money for the Schools so that we can buy items of equipment that the schools would not otherwise be able to afford such as computers and other equipment.

Our second purpose is to keep up a good relationship between the parents and staff at the Schools. We feel this is a very important part of our existence and we invite the staff to attend and take part in all our activities.

Finally, we feel that the children prosper when their parents meet and get to know each other, so several times a year we have an opportunity either for the parents in each class to meet, or for the parents of the Schools generally to get together.

The Chairman of the PTA keeps in close touch with the Head Teachers of both the School and the Kindergarten and represents the PTA on the Governing Body so that the voice of the parents is heard when and if necessary.

We have a new parents evening at someone’s home at the beginning of each year and we would be delighted to meet and welcome you then to what is purely a social evening. Later on in the term we have our first formal meeting and hope that you will come along and air your views and ideas and become active members of the PTA.
